Climatic drivers of trait assembly in woody plants in Japan

Aim: A trait-based biogeographical approach can be used to shed light on species-sorting mechanisms that are driven by the interactions between species traits and abiotic conditions along large-scale gradients. We tested the hypothesis that geographical patterns of woody plant assemblages are driven...
