Weak phylogenetic and habitat effects on root trait variation of 218 Neotropical tree species

IntroductionTropical forests harbor a large diversity of closely related tree species that can thrive across habitats. This biodiversity has been found to correspond to large functional diversity in aboveground traits, and likely also relates to belowground trait variation. Globally, root trait (co-...
