Résumé : | This book examines a synthesis of plant response to temporal and spatial heterogeneity, the exploitation of resources from pulses and patches by plants, and their competition with neighbors in the face of this variability. Approximately half of this volume is directed to the aboveground environment, addressing the nature of canopy patchiness and light transitions - the mechanisms by which plants perceive, acclimate and exploit this patchiness. The remainder explores analogous questions of the belowground environment, heterogeneity in the soil environment and how root systems adjust and acquire nutrients and water in the context of soil temporal and spatial variability. |
