1. Endothermic organisms can adapt to short growing seasons, low temperatures and nutrient limitation by developing high growth rates and high gross growth efficiencies (GGEs). Animals with high GGEs
We assessed nutrient limitations and ecological stoichiometry across four planting patterns: no-planting system (BK), bean monoculture system (A), Sichuan pepper monoculture system (F), and Sichuan pe
The allocation of limiting elements, such as nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P), in plants is an important basis for structural stability and functional optimization in natural plant communities. However
