Further re-analyses looking for effects of phylogenetic diversity on community biomass and stability
Cardinale, B. J., Venail, P., Gross, K., Oakley, T. H., Narwani, A., Allan, E., … Ruijven, J. (2015, December). FUNCTIONAL ECOLOGY, Vol. 29, pp. 1607–1610.
TL;DR:
All analyses strongly support previous literature claims about the value of PD and it is found that SR tends to increase the biomass production of plant communities after controlling for PD, and Cadotte concludes that PD provides a more powerful explanation of variation in biomass production than species richness.
