Ecology: More Is Less. Wilkinson, R. 537(7618):42.
Paper doi abstract bibtex [Excerpt] Plants compete for the same resources, such as nutrients, light and water. Because these resources are often limited, the coexistence of plant species requires the creation of trade-offs in resource use. In this issue, Harpole et al. report that increasing a limited nutrient in grassland can eliminate these potential trade-offs, reducing overall species diversity (W. S. Harpole et al. Nature 537, 93-96; 2016). [] The authors considered 45 grassland sites across 6 continents, and measured species diversity in response to various nutrient additions. [...] The greater the number of limiting resources that were added, the more species were lost, although productivity and turnover improved. [...]
