Climate-change induced warmer spring temperatures advance tree leaf-out and result in earlier shading of the forest floor. Climate change also leads to more frequent droughts. Forest understorey herbs may respond these environmental changes by varying traits at different hierarchical levels organization. While trait mean variation inter-individual level response is well-studied, little known about how intra-individual responds.We sampled genets herb Galium odoratum from 21 populations three...
Ongoing climate change poses an increasing threat to biodiversity. To avoid decline or extinction, species need either adjust adapt new environmental conditions track their climatic niches across space. In sessile organisms such as plants, phenotypic plasticity can help maintain fitness in variable and even novel is therefore likely play important role allowing them survive change, particularly the short term. Understanding a species' response rising temperature crucial for planning...

SUMMARY Intra-individual trait variation in plants represents an often ignored but important dimension of phenotypic that contributes to functional diversity and the dynamics ecological communities. It can be expressed differently across plant traits, induction intra-individual different types under environmental stresses has not yet been explored. We used clonal forest herb, Galium odoratum , investigate within vegetative, phenological, floral trade-offs between average a full-factorial...
Abstract Local adaptation is a common phenomenon that helps plant populations to adjust broad-scale environmental heterogeneity. Given the strong effect of forest management on understorey microenvironment and often long-term effects actions, it seems likely herbs may have locally adapted practiced regime induced variation. We investigated response Anemone nemorosa Milium effusum using transplant experiment along silvicultural intensity gradient. Genets were sampled from sites with...
Forest management has a strong impact on the forest structure and subsequently biotic abiotic understorey environment. herbs can thus be expected to evolutionary respond management-induced environmental variation (provided sufficient time for adaptation), but this been little tested date. Here we use common garden, test genetically based in phenotypic traits populations of sampled along intensity gradient. Five different herbaceous species were from 70-100 three regions Germany flowering...
