Shixiong Wang, Liang Zhao, Na Li, Hua Guo, Xiaoan Wang, Renyan Duan. The relative contributions of rare and common species to the patterns of species richness in plant communities[J]. Biodiv Sci, 2016, 24(6): 658-664.
Fig. 2 Contribution of rare and common species to overall pattern in species richness. Subsets of species were assembled by ranking species by number of sampling plots occupied, starting with either the most common species or the rarest species. Successively rarer (or more common) species were added one by one to form nested subsets, until all species within a taxon were included in the last subset. Contribution of rare and common species to overall pattern in species richness measure as the sequential correlation between partial and full assemblage species richness patterns.
Fig. 3 Contribution of rare and common species to α diversity pattern in species richness. Subsets of species were assembled by ranking species by number of sampling plots occupied, starting with either the most common species or the rarest species. Successively rarer (or more common) species were added one by one to form nested subsets, until all species within a taxon were included in the last subset. Contributions of rare and common species to β diversity as measured by the change of variation in community composition between full and partial assemblage which was induced by the addition or removal of species.
Fig. 4 Contribution of rare and common species to β diversity pattern in species richness. Subsets of species were assembled by ranking species by number of sampling plots occupied, starting with either the most common species or the rarest species. Successively rarer (or more common) species were added one by one to form nested subsets, until all species within a taxon were included in the last subset. Contributions of rare and common species to β diversity as measured by the change of variation in community composition between full and partial assemblage which was induced by the addition or removal of species.
