英文摘要 | Although biodiversity has been shown to profoundly affect ecosystem function in forests, the processes which it impacts are limited understood. Various plant species with diverse sizes interact to form complex networks to complete resource use processes, but little is known about the role of species-size networks in influencing ecosystem function and biodiversity-ecosystem function relationships. Using a dataset encompassing 423 species and 32,067 individuals, we constructed species-tree diameter and species-tree height networks for two sampling areas (0.04 and 0.09 ha), and then calculated the network modularity for species and size interlinked specialization and nestedness, species or sizes with relatively few links are a subset of those with more network links. We analyzed the relationships between modularity, nestedness, and the aboveground biomass. The direct and indirect effects of species abundance and richness on the aboveground biomass through network structures were explored using structural equation modelling. Regardless of the species-tree diameter or height network, modularity was positively associated with the aboveground biomass, independent of the sampling area, while nestedness was negatively associated. Species abundance negatively affected the modularity, but positively affected nestedness, whereas species richness had the opposite effect. Species abundance and richness affected the aboveground biomass indirectly through modularity and nestedness, but the effect of modularity was greater than that of nestedness. Our study confirms that the importance of species-size networks in the context of the aboveground biomass has similar effects on species-diameter and height networks across sampling areas. It clarifies that modularity from interactions between species and individuals is a useful indicator to reveal the mechanism by which plant diversity acquires resources for biomass production. These results provide new insights into biodiversity-ecosystem function relationships from a network perspective. |
