Spatial variation and mechanisms of leaf water content in grassland plants at the biome scale: evidence from three comparative transects
Abstract Leaf water content (LWC) has important physiological and ecological significance for plant growth. However, it is still unclear how LWC varies over large spatial scale and with plant adaptation strategies. Here, we measured the LWC of 1365 grassland plants, along three comparative precipita...
