Seasonal differences in leaf-level physiology give lianas a competitive advantage over trees in a tropical seasonal forest
Lianas are an important component of most tropical forests, where they vary in abundance from high in seasonal forests to low in aseasonal forests. We tested the hypothesis that the physiological ability of lianas to fix carbon (and thus grow) during seasonal drought may confer a distinct advantage...
