... To what extent does plasticity of dipterocarp seedlings affect growth and survival in the tropical rainforest environment? 050139246 The Journal of Ecology (September 2007) To what extent does plasticity of dipterocarp seedlings affect growth and survival in the tropical rainforest environment? Abstract This study focused on survival and growth of three dipterocarp seedlings in exposed areas compared with shaded areas of the tropical rainforest, in order to determine the role plasticity plays in this. All species of dipterocarp seedlings showed some degree of morphological plasticity in response to the different environments. Each of the three dipterocarp species showed equal plasticity in terms morphological traits when subjected to different light conditions. Chlorophyll content was found to be a genetic trait rather than a trait of plasticity. Herbivory was also found to be determined by species rather than environment. Damage by herbivores was found to play a larger role in plant
