Summary Introduction
Biodiversity is higher near the equator and it lessens when we move towards the poles. The idea in which the diversity is more near the equator is referred to as the latitudinal diversity gradient. One theory states that the availability of more niche for species might be possible for the biodiversity. Another hypothesis, states that the greater primary level productivity is responsible.
