Community assembly by limiting similarity vs. competitive hierarchies: testing the consequences of dispersion of individual traits

Original language description

The degree of dispersion of trait values among species in a community has frequently been used to infer processes of community assembly. However, multiple assembly processes can lead to the same pattern of trait dispersion or the same process can lead todifferent patterns of dispersion. In particular, competitive processes can lead both to trait overdispersion (if the trait controls niche differentiation and only substantial differences allow coexistence) or to trait underdispersion (if the trait controls position in a competitive hierarchy and only similar values enhance coexistence). Because different traits are likely to contribute to stabilizing (niche differentiation) and equalizing (competitive hierarchies) mechanisms of coexistence, we comparethe role of dispersion of a number of individual traits for species diversity by conducting in silico experiments using field-parameterized spatially explicit models of communities of clonally growing plants. We manipulate both dispersion
