Soil properties drive a negative correlation between species diversity and genetic diversity in a tropical seasonal rainforest

A negative species-genetic diversity correlation (SGDC) could be predicted by the niche variation hypothesis, whereby an increase in species diversity within community reduces the genetic diversity of the co-occurring species because of the reduction in average niche breadth; alternatively, competit...
