Exotic or not, leaf trait dissimilarity modulates the effect of dominant species on mixed litter decomposition
1.It has long been recognized that leaf traits exert a crucial control on litter decomposition, a key process for nutrient cycling, and that invading species can greatly alter such soil processes via changes in mixed litter trait composition. Trait effects on ecosystem processes are hypothesized to...
