Effects of boundary constraints and climatic factors on plant diversity along an altitudinal gradient

Despite the long-standing ecological interest in elevational-diversity gradients, it remains unclear whether different life forms (trees, shrubs and herbs) show the same diversity patterns along the gradient. The distribution of plants observed along an altitudinal elevation in the Lancang River Nat...
