Check @EleonoraBeccari latest work in @NatureComms We explored how adding root size traits shapes the big picture of plant strategies. Spoiler: aboveground & belowground sizes form a single allometric spectrum independent of leaf and root economics. nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

Meeting of the Editorial Board of the Journal of Vegetation Science and Applied Vegetation Science in Funchal, Madeira. We discussed strategies for further improvements to both journals so that they provide the best service to vegetation scientists and continuously advance the field of plant community ecology. @JVegSci @ApplVegSci @IAVS5 #IAVS2024
