Sentence examples for diversity effects in from inspiring English sources
However, the few available studies on diversity effects in SRC plantations did not allow the disentangling of the mechanisms at play.
There is more evidence for beneficial diversity effects in relation to biotic disturbance agents (Bauhus et al., 2017a, b).
Indeed, dominance by a single highly productive species, Selenastrum, was responsible for diversity effects in both the homo- and heterogeneous nutrient environments.
Considering plant productivity measures in additional ANCOVAs showed that both plant shoot biomass and root biomass were not responsible for plant diversity effects in each of the trophic groups of macrofauna.
The slight decrease of plant diversity effects in 2006 presumably was due to unusual dry weather conditions in June and July of this year (Fig. S1), generally resulting in low densities of soil animals and weak plant community effects.
Regardless of the exact mechanism that was responsible for the genetic diversity effects in our study, our findings have interesting implications for aquaculture operations – increasing the genetic diversity of larval cultures could increase yields of larvae over time (>30% in our study) – a previously unanticipated effect.
Therefore we try to assess the diversity effect in a reverse approach, by viewing selectively the maximum rates at each density level, even though the problem exists that not all species combinations contain the species of highest productivity (a kind of negative selection effect).
The importance of genetic diversity effects observed in this study for field populations of Galeolaria caespitosa remains unknown.
However, the lack of plant diversity effects on predators in 2008 is difficult to interpret.
Considering recent studies [25], [60], [68] we expected the significance of plant diversity effects to increase in time.
Extension of designs will also reveal whether a further increase in species richness can lead to an additional gain in diversity effects and mixture yields (Suter et al., 2010; Connolly et al., 2013).
