Compliance with ethical standards
: The Institute of College of Horticulture and Forestry Sciences, Huazhong Agricultural University, has had a permit from the Zigui county Forestry Bureau to conduct scientific experiments in the Three Gorges Reservoir area of China since May 2006. The senescent fresh leaf litter collected for this study was only sampled at a very limited scale, and thus had negligible effects on broader ecosystem functioning. Moreover, this research was carried out in compliance with the laws of the People’s Republic of China. The research did not involve measurements on humans or animals and no endangered or protected plant species was involved.
