Characteristics and driving mechanisms of species beta diversity in desert plant communities.

Species dissimilarity (beta diversity) primarily reflects the spatio-temporal changes in the species composition of a plant community. The correlations between β diversity and environmental factors and spatial distance can be used to explain the magnitudes of environmental filtering and dispersal. H...
