Regeneration: an overlooked aspect of trait‐based plant community assembly models

Summary Despite the disproportionate influence that propagule production, dispersal, seed‐to‐seedling recruitment and vegetative reproduction can have on plant population and community dynamics, progress has been slow in the directed collection of regeneration traits to inform community assembly outcomes. While seed mass is globally available and linked to growth and reproductive output, there are limits to its explanatory ability. In this...
