Plant intraspecific functional trait variation is related to within‐habitat heterogeneity and genetic diversity in Trifolium montanum L.

Abstract Intraspecific trait variation (ITV), based on available genetic diversity, is one of the major means plant populations can respond to environmental variability.The study of functional trait variation and diversity has become popular in ecological research, for example, as a proxy for plant performance influencing fitness.Up to now, it is u
