Identity and provenance of neighbors, genotype-specific traits and abiotic stress affect intraspecific interactions in the annual legume Medicago truncatula

The paper investigates how genotype-specific traits, abiotic stress, and neighbor identity influence intraspecific interactions in Medicago truncatula, finding that non-kin neighbors promote growth more than kin under low stress.

Intraspecific interactions in the annual legume Medicago minima are shaped by both genetic variation for competitive ability and reduced competition among kin.

The paper tests how genetic variation and kinship influence intraspecific competition in Medicago minima, finding both competitive ability and kin avoidance affect plant growth.

Whole plant community transplants across climates reveal structural community stability due to large shifts in species assemblage

The paper tests how dryland plant communities respond to contrasting rainfall regimes through reciprocal transplants, finding structural stability despite compositional shifts.
