Fig. 2 Functional dendrogram of the 18 dominant species inL. glaber–C. glauca evergreen broad-leaved forest community.
Fig. 3 Effects of topographic and edaphic variables on
leaf functional traits and phylogenetic compositions at the
community level. TP, TC, TN, TK: total soil phosphorus, nitrogen,
carbon and potassium, respectively; AP, available phosphorus. Alt, Asp,
Con, Slo: altitude, aspect, convexity, slope, respectively. (a) The
effect of each variable (topography or soil) on community-weighted mean
(CWMs) of leaf functional traits. (b) The effect of each variable
(topography or soil) on phylogenetic compositions.
Fig.4 Variation partitioning of phylogenetic and
functional traits structures (adjusted R2 ×
100%) in the effects of different response variables at the community
level . The interpretation rates
of purely environmental (A), shared environmental and spatial (B) and
purely spatial (C) fractions on different response variable are
indicated by red, blue, and green, respectively. Response variables are
the all community-level functional traits (Funtc),
phylogenetic (Phyc) structures and each community-level
traits composition.
