Jingyun Fang, Xiangping Wang, Zhiyao Tang. Local and regional processes control species richness of plant communities: the species pool hypothesis[J]. Biodiv Sci, 2009, 17(6): 605-612.
Fig. 1 The “hump-backed” model of Grime (1979). The model incorporates five processes that affect community species richness: (1) dominance; (2) stress; (3) disturbance; (4) niche differentiation; and (5) colonization.
Fig. 3 Changes in the correlation coefficient of the relationship between vascular plant species richness and soil pH with latitude. The relationship between species richness and soil pH shows a negative correlation at low latitudes (below the dashed line), while a positive relationship at high latitudes(P?rtel, 2002).
Fig. 4 Changes in productivity-plant diversity relationships with latitude. Y axis is the proportion of unimodal (A) and positive (B) relationships to cases in which no significant relations are found between productivity and diversity. With increasing latitude, the proportion of unimodal relationships increased remarkably (R2 = 0.72, P = 0.034) while that of positive relationships decreased (R2 = 0.93, P = 0.002) (P?rtel et al., 2007).
Fig. 5 Two theoretical relationships between local and regional species richness. For the unsaturated relationship (Type I), community richness is not limited by biotic interactions in the local habitat and increases proportionately with regional richness. In the saturated relationship (Type II), however, biotic interactions limit community richness which saturates and becomes independent of regional species pool. Communities in the real world probably fall on a continuum between the two extremes (Gaston, 2000).
