AraDiv: a dataset of functional traits and leaf hyperspectral reflectance of Arabidopsis thaliana

Scientific Data, 2023
AbstractData from functional trait databases have been increasingly used to address questions related to plant diversity and trait-environment relationships. However, such databases provide intraspecific data that combine individual records obtained from distinct populations at different sites and, hence, environmental conditions.

ANALYSIS OF FUNCTIONAL LEAF TRAIT VARIATION AMONG THE DOMINANT UNDERSTOREY SPECIES IN THE PINE FOREST OF MORNI HILLS, PANCHKULA, HARYANA [PDF]

Journal of Tropical Life Science, 2021
The functionaldiversity is an essential concept in the field of ecology. It refers to the relative abundance, range, and value of the functional traits present in a given community or ecosystem.

Seasonal variation of leaf thickness: An overlooked component of functional trait variability

Plant Biology, 2022
Abstract The dry and wet seasons in the Neotropics have strong effects on soil water and nutrient availability, as well as on forest dynamics. Despite these major effects on forest ecology, little is known on how leaf traits vary throughout the seasons in tropical rainforest trees.

Global variability in leaf respiration in relation to climate, plant functional types and leaf traits [PDF]

New Phytologist, 2015
Summary Leaf dark respiration (Rdark) is an important yet poorly quantified component of the global carbon cycle. Given this, we analyzed a new global database of Rdark and associated leaf traits. Data for 899 species were compiled from 100 sites (from the Arctic to the tropics).

Can functional leaf traits be used for monitoring wetland restoration? A comparison between commonly used monitoring metrics and functional leaf traits

Ecological Indicators, 2022
Monitoring is essential to restoration, but the standard metrics used to monitor wetland restoration do not explicitly account for function in plant communities. Functional traits may be a useful addition to the wetland monitoring toolkit, because they can represent aspects of ecosystem functioning that standard metrics may not.

Leaf reflectance and functional traits as environmental indicators of urban dust deposition [PDF]

BMC Plant Biology, 2021
Abstract Background How to quickly predict and evaluate urban dust deposition is the key to the control of urban atmospheric environment. Here, we focus on changes of plant reflectance and plant functional traits due to dust deposition, and develop a prediction model of dust deposition based on these traits.

Latitudinal, soil and climate effects on key leaf traits in northeastern China

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2020
s: The spatial differentiation of plant functional traits reflects the survival strategies of plants to adapt to climate change. However, the mechanisms that guide this phenomenon, especially along latitude gradients, remain unclear.
