Differential Effects of Desiccation on Hornworts with Contrasting Life Histories in Tropical Montane Forests: A Functional Trait—Based Perspective

Desiccation tolerance (DT) is the ability of an organism or structure to dry completely and subsequently survive in that air-dry state. Hornworts are excellent plant models to study desiccation effects as they have contrasting life histories which are likely associated with DT. We tested whether (1)...
