The Missing Phylogenetic and Evolutionary Dimensions of Leaf N:P as a Nutrient‐Limitation Diagnostic

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: Summary statement Leaf N:P and C:P ratios are unreliable cross‐ecosystem nutrient‐limitation diagnostics because they conflate species turnover with physiological response and ignore evolutionary adaptation to low‐P soils.
