An intraspecific application of the leaf-height-seed ecology strategy scheme to forest herbs along a latitudinal gradient

We measured LHS traits in 41 Anemone nemorosa and 44 Milium effusum populations along a 1900-2300 km latitudinal gradient from N France to N Sweden. We then applied multilevel models to identify th ...
