Intraspecific Trait Variability in Andropogon gerardii, a Dominant Grass Species in the US Great Plains
The climatic conditions in the North American Great Plains are highly variable, characteristic of an inter-continental climate. Antecedent climate history has impacted the flora of Great Plains grasslands, resulting in high species richness as well as dominance by only a few grass species, such as A...
