Edaphic filters and the functional structure of plant assemblages in grasslands in southern Brazil

QUESTIONS: We analysed trait convergence and trait divergence assembly patterns across a metacommunity of grassland types (dry, wet and rocky) occurring along an edaphic gradient. We asked whether (1) floristics and phylogenetic structures vary among grassland types; (2) there is convergence and/or...
