Biodiversity and ecosystem multifunctionality
TL;DR: It is shown that ecosystem multifunctionality does require greater numbers of species, and studies focusing on individual processes in isolation will underestimate levels of biodiversity required to maintain multifunctional ecosystems.
Higher levels of multiple ecosystem services are found in forests with more tree species, Suppl info

TL;DR: It is reported that tree species richness in production forests shows positive to positively hump-shaped relationships with multiple ecosystem services, including production of tree biomass, soil carbon storage, berry production and game production potential.

TL;DR: This study shows experimentally that changes in plant diversity and species composition are caused by fungal pathogens and insect herbivores, and provides an overall test of the Janzen–Connell hypothesis.

TL;DR: The results suggest that stabilizing effects of diversity on community productivity through population asynchrony and overyielding appear to be general in grassland ecosystems.
