Aim The study aims to decipher the co‐occurrence of understorey plant assemblages and, accordingly, to identify a set of species groups (diversity deconstruction) to better understand the multiple causal processes underlying post‐fire succession and diversity patterns in boreal forest. Location North‐eastern Canadian boreal forest (49°07′–51°44′ N; 70°13′–65°15′ W). Methods Data on understorey plant communities and habitat fac...
