Drivers of competition asymmetry in communities of perennial species: ubiquitous but untested

Principle investigator: Jan Lepš
Funding provider: the Grant Agency of the Czech Republic
Grant No.: 23-05654S
Duration: 2023- 2025

Project is based on the idea that the main driver of competitive exclusion in plant communities is mainly competition asymmetry, and not so much competition intensity. The rate of competitive exclusion increases with competition asymmetry. It is expected that the aboveground competition is more asymmetric than the belowground competition, but the experimental proof is missing. In the project, we use newly established experiments, as well as the long-term data from our permanent plots (mainly Ohrazení). Common project with the working group of Tomáš Herben (Botanical institute CAS, Průhonice).
