Winner–loser plant trait replacements in human-modified tropical forests by Pinho, BX, Melo, FPL, ter Braak, CJF, Bauman, D, Maréchaux, I, Tabarelli, M, Benchimol, M, Arroyo-Rodriguez, V, Santos, BA, Hawes, JE, Berenguer, E, Ferreira, J, Silveira, JM, Peres, CA, Rocha‐Santos, L, Souza, FC, Gonçalves-Souza, T, Mariano-Neto, E, Faria, D, Barlow, J

“…Combining floristic and functional trait data for 1,207 tree species across 271 forest plots, we find that forest loss consistently caused an increased dominance of low-density woods and small seeds dispersed by endozoochory (winner traits) and the loss of distinctive traits, such as extremely dense woods and large seeds dispersed by synzoochory (loser traits). …”
