We apply this model to data from commonly co-occurring Protea species in the Cape Floristic Region, South Africa and demonstrate that despite large differences in traits that are related to performance, trait covariation leads to minimal performance differences among species. The cells borrow a stop codon UGA to translate selenocysteines. Just three steps to a better way of working. Place a check next to Additional Styles and choose Will be installed on local hard drive. Select the Modify Option and choose Next. Here we develop a model showing that when the major axes of trait covariation do not align with the axis of performance variation, species that differ in structural traits, i.e., species having ‘alternative designs,’ may achieve similar performance. Windows: Go to Control Panel and choose Add or Remove Programs in Windows XP or Programs and Features in Windows Vista/7. Alternatively, if combinations of trait differences converge on similar performance trait differences associated with niche partitioning may lead to phenotypically diverse species that exhibit similar performance. Russell Special Collections Libraries, 2nd Floor Exhibition Hallway, UGA Special Collections Building. If differences in traits are associated with differences in performance, and there is substantial trait variation within local communities, we might expect competitive asymmetries that would lead to competitive exclusion.

Within a local community, variation in many of these traits may promote coexistence of competing species through niche partitioning. Students MUST use their UGA email address or access will be denied. Variation in plant traits related to size and architecture, water relations, and resource uptake reflect important dimensions of plant function that may explain how different species are adapted to their local environments. The system will verify their status and automatically issue instructions in an email for setting up an account with Wolfram, and download and software activation.
