Liu, Y., Dawson, W., Prati, D., Haeuser, E., Feng, Y., & van Kleunen, M. (2016). Does greater specific leaf area plasticity help plants to maintain a high performance when shaded? Annals of Botany, 118(7), 1329-1336. doi:10.1093/aob/mcw180
The source I found is an article published in the journal Annals of Botany. I classified this source as academic peer-reviewed research material. The article was written by experts in the field of biology and plant sciences, who are associated with numerous reputable universities. The article contains frequent in-text citations from various sources and journals as well as a list of literature cited at the end of the text. I classified the article as peer-reviewed academic material since the authors acknowledge two anonymous referees who reviewed the article prior to publication. Finally, I identified the article as research material, since it contains a Materials and Methods section, as well as a Results section outlining a research study.
