Understanding the rules of community assembly and species coexistence is one of the oldest and most fundamental aims of ecological research (Götzenberger et al., 2012). To date, numerous potential ecological processes have been identified as drivers of species sorting into communities. Among these, abiotic conditions and biotic interactions, as well as dispersal, are generally agreed to have an important role, beside stochastic events (Cornwell and Ackerly, 2009). Abiotic and biotic processes act as a series of filters, selecting species from a regional species pool into local communities (Zobel, 2016) based on their functional characteristics which make them suitable for the particular habitat (Díaz et al., 1998). Such characteristics, i.e. “functional traits,” are defined as “any morphological, physiological or phenological feature measurable at the individual level, which impacts fitness indirectly via its effects on growth, reproduction and survival” (Violle et al., 2007).

花卉性状在基于性状的植物群落组装中被忽视的重要性

了解群落组装和物种共存的规则是生态研究最古老和最基本的目标之一（Götzenberger 等，2012）。迄今为止，许多潜在的生态过程已被确定为物种分类到群落的驱动因素。其中，除随机事件外，非生物条件和生物相互作用以及扩散通常被认为具有重要作用（Cornwell 和 Ackerly，2009 年）。非生物和生物过程充当一系列过滤器，根据使其适合特定栖息地的功能特征，从区域物种库中选择物种进入当地群落（Zobel，2016 年）（Díaz 等人，1998 年）。这些特征，即“功能性状”，被定义为“任何形态的、可在个体层面测量的生理或物候特征，通过其对生长、繁殖和生存的影响间接影响健康”（Violle 等，2007）。虽然，根据定义，复制是三个收到之一：2019 年 6 月 6 日 | 修订日期：2020 年 2 月 14 日 | 接受：2020 年 2 月 26 日 DOI：10.1111/jvs.12877
