Other claims from this paper (8)
- Association Higher genetic diversity marginally increased species diversity in four- and eight-species communities.
- Association Genetic diversity altered genotype performance in Festuca ovina monocultures.
- Association Composition shifts from genetic diversity did not alter community productivity patterns.
- Association Genetic diversity decreased interspecific competition in four-species mixtures.
- Mechanism Genetic diversity promoted competitive equivalency and species equitability in four-species mixtures.
- Observation Festuca ovina genotypes had synergistic and antagonistic interactions in monocultures.
- Association Interactions among Festuca ovina genotypes weakened on shallow soils.
- Association Neighbor genetic composition affected Festuca ovina genotype performance without affecting total productivity.
