主 题:ANPP Biodiversity Clonal grass Colonization Extinction Nitrogen addition frequency
摘 要:Tall clonal grasses commonly display competitive advantages with nitrogen(N)***,it is currently unknown whether the height is derived from the vegetative or reproductive ***,it is unclear whether the height of the vegetative or reproductive system regulates the probability of extinction and colonization,and determines species *** this study,the impacts on clonal grasses were studied in a field experiment employing two frequencies(twice a year ***)crossing with nine N addition rates in a temperate grassland,*** found that the N addition decreased species frequency and increased extinction probability,but did not change the species colonization probability.A low frequency of N addition decreased species frequency and colonization probability,but increased extinction ***,we found that species reproductive height was the best index to predict the extinction probability of clonal grasses in N-enriched *** low frequency of N addition may overestimate the negative effect from N deposition on clonal grass diversity,suggesting that a higher frequency of N addition is more suitable in assessing the ecological effects of N ***,this study illustrates that reproductive height was associated with the clonal species extinction probability under N-enriched environment.
