Background Numerous previous studies have investigated the efects of grazing or mowing on plant community diversity and productivity in grasslands;however,few have deliberately made sound comparison between the efects...

Aims Plant populations in managed grasslands are subject to strong selection exerted by grazing,mowing and fertilization.Many previous studies showed that this can cause evolutionary changes in mean trait values,but l...

Aims The divergent changes of plant species under land use changes are key mechanisms underlying vegetation succession.Stipa grandis steppe and Stipa krylovii steppe are two plant commu-nities widely distributed on th...
