Plant functional traits are key drivers of ecosystem stability, yet the extent to which trait-stability relationships vary among different ecosystems remains poorly understood. Here, we provide a comparative analysis of trait-stability relationships across temperate and alpine grasslands. By integrating in situ measu...

ABSTRACT Stomata, the micro‐valves on leaves, regulate CO2 uptake and water loss. Thus, the anatomical maximum stomatal conductance, g max, is a key influence on gas exchange, growth and productivity. For 145 geographically diverse ecotypes of Arabidopsis thaliana grown in a common garden we tested hypotheses for the d...

Grasses comprise many of the world's major cereal crops, yet the physiological mechanisms underlying their resilience to environmental stress remain unclear. While C4 grasses tend to display higher water use efficiency than C3 grasses, little is known about the underlying physiological and structural dynamics during mi...
