The Leaf Economics Spectrum Constrains Phenotypic Plasticity Across a Light Gradient
The leaf economics spectrum (LES) characterizes multivariate correlations that confine the global diversity of leaf functional traits onto a single axis of variation. Although LES is well established for traits of sun leaves, it is unclear how well LES characterizes the diversity of traits for shade...
