Trait evolution, community assembly, and the phylogenetic structure of ecological communitiesNathan J B Kraft
Department of Integrative Biology, University of California, Berkeley, California 94720, USA
Am Nat 170:271-83. 2007..Our results deepen our understanding of processes that contribute to phylogenetic community structure and provide guidance for the design and interpretation of empirical research...
Contrasting trait responses in plant communities to experimental and geographic variation in precipitationBrody Sandel
Department of Integrative Biology, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720, USA
New Phytol 188:565-75. 2010..We propose a model of community change that incorporates these differences between short- and long-term responses to climate change...
The relationship between wood density and mortality in a global tropical forest data setNathan J B Kraft
Department of Integrative Biology, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720, USA
New Phytol 188:1124-36. 2010..However, the relationship varied among families, plots, and even census intervals within sites, indicating that the factors responsible for the relationship between wood density and mortality vary spatially, taxonomically and temporally...

Department of Integrative Biology, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720, USA
Science 322:580-2. 2008..Our results show that strategy differentiation among species contributes to the maintenance of diversity in one of the most diverse tropical forests in the world...
