Warming and leaf litter functional diversity, not litter quality, drive decomposition in a freshwater ecosystem
(Nature Research, 2020-11-23)
Environment, litter composition and decomposer community are known to be the main drivers of litter decomposition in aquatic ecosystems. However, it remains unclear whether litter quality or functional diversity prevails ...
Leaf litter traits drive community structure and functioning in a natural aquatic microcosm
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2018-04-01)
Leaf litter fuels secondary production in many aquatic ecosystems. Although the identity and species richness of leaf litter have been shown to influence ecosystem functioning and food-web composition, it has been challenging ...
Nitrogen fertilizer increased litter deposition and litter N in warm-climate grasslands
(Springer, 2021-01-26)
In warm-climate grasslands, litter deposition and decomposition are one of the main pathway of nutrient cycling. The application of nitrogen (N) fertilizer or the inclusion of a legume in such grasslands modifies litter ...
Decomposition of the Rubber Tree Hevea brasiliensis Litter at Two Depths
(Instituto de Investigaciones Agropecuarias, INIA, 2008)
Combined effects of litter features, UV radiation, and soil water on litter decomposition in denuded areas of the arid Patagonian Monte
(Springer, 2016-09)
Aims: We evaluated the combined effects of litter type, UV radiation, and soil water on litter decomposition processes in denuded areas of the arid Patagonian Monte. Methods: We conducted a manipulative experiment with ...

Leaf litter of Kageneckia angustifolia D. Don (Rosaceae) inhibits seed germination in sclerophyllous montane woodlands of central Chile
(SPRINGER, 2007-05)
Leaf litter accumulation can have either positive, negative or neutral effects on seed germination and seedling recruitment. In montane woodlands of the Mediterranean zone of central Chile, large amounts of leaf litter ...
Do litter manipulations affect leaf functional traits of savanna woody plants?
(Springer, 2014-01-01)
Plant litter is the layer composed of dead plant material that covers soil surfaces in terrestrial ecosystems. It is an important pool of essential nutrients for soil and plants, serving also as a protective layer on the ...
