UNDERSTANDING PLANT COMMUNITY RESPONSES TO COMBINATIONS OF BIOTIC AND ABIOTIC FACTORS IN DIFFERENT PHASES OF THE PLANT GROWTH CYCLE.

Understanding plant community responses to combinations of biotic and abiotic factors in different phases of the plant growth cycle.

Understanding plant community responses to combinations of biotic and abiotic factors is critical for predicting ecosystem response to environmental change.However, studies of plant community regulation have seldom considered how responses to such factors vary with the different phases of the plant growth cycle.To address this deficit we studied an
