Failed replacement enhances tropical tree diversity

Failed replacement enhances tropical tree diversity

The Janzen-Connell (JC) hypothesis is a leading explanation for plant-species diversity in tropical forests. It predicts that host specialist natural enemies drive the disproportionate mortality of con specific juveniles close to adults, particularly when density is high. The survival of heterospeci...
