Resumen:
Species richness (SR) and phylogenetic diversity (PD) are highly correlated measures of plant diversity. Each, by itself, is significantly associated with plant community biomass in biodiversity experiments. As presented by Cadotte (2015) and as we present below, reasonable but alternative analyses that attempt to control for this correlation in different ways provide contradictory or inconclusive support for the hypothesis that PD is superior to SR as a predictor of community biomass.
