We investigated intraspecific variations of leaf traits such as number of leaves, leaf size, leaf mass per shoot, leaf mass per area (LMA) and leaf nitrogen concentration (leaf N), in a deciduous alpine dwarf shrub Sieversia pentapetala (L.) Greene (Rosaceae), along an altitudinal gradient in the Ta...
