abstract = {Priority effects occur when species that arrive first in a
habitat significantly affect the establishment, growth, or
reproduction of species arriving later and thus affect
functioning of communities. However, we know little about
how the timing of arrival of functionally different species
may alter structure and function during assembly. Even less
is known about how plant density might interact with initial
assembly. In a greenhouse experiment legumes, grasses or
forbs were sown a number of weeks before the other two plant
functional types were sown (PFT) in combination with a
sowing density treatment. Legumes, grasses or non-legume
forbs were sown first at three different density levels
followed by sowing of the remaining PFTs after three or
six-weeks. We found that the order of arrival of different
plant functional types had a much stronger influence on
aboveground productivity than sowing density or interval
between the sowing events. The sowing of legumes before the
other PFTs produced the highest aboveground biomass. The
larger sowing interval led to higher asymmetric competition,
with highest dominance of the PFT sown first. It seems that
legumes were better able to get a head-start and be
productive before the later groups arrived, but that their
traits allowed for better subsequent establishment of
non-legume PFTs. Our study indicates that the manipulation
of the order of arrival can create priority effects which
favour functional groups of plants differently and thus
induce different assembly routes and affect community
composition and functioning.},
