Environmental filtering rather than dispersal limitation dominated plant community assembly in the Zoige Plateau
Abstract Identifying the mechanisms that underlie the assembly of plant communities is critical to the conservation of terrestrial biodiversity. However, it is seldom measured or quantified how much deterministic versus stochastic processes contribute to community assembly in alpine meadows. Here, w...
