TRY - a global database of plant traits

Jens Kattge, +136 more
TL;DR: TRY as discussed by the authors is a global database of plant traits, including morphological, anatomical, physiological, biochemical and phenological characteristics of plants and their organs, which can be used for a wide range of research from evolutionary biology, community and functional ecology to biogeography.
Journal ArticleDOI

TRY plant trait database : Enhanced coverage and open access

Jens Kattge, +754 more
- 01 Jan 2020 - 
TL;DR: The extent of the trait data compiled in TRY is evaluated and emerging patterns of data coverage and representativeness are analyzed to conclude that reducing data gaps and biases in the TRY database remains a key challenge and requires a coordinated approach to data mobilization and trait measurements.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microbes on mountainsides: Contrasting elevational patterns of bacterial and plant diversity

Jessica A. Bryant, +7 more
- 12 Aug 2008 - 
TL;DR: The findings suggest that the forces structuring microorganism and macroorganism communities along elevational gradients differ, and that the influence of sample scale in intertaxonomic comparisons remains a challenge.
Journal ArticleDOI

Relationships between body size and abundance in ecology.

Ethan P. White, +4 more
- 01 Jun 2007 - 
TL;DR: It is argued that a synthetic understanding of size-abundance relationships will result from more detailed analyses of individual patterns and from careful consideration of how and why the patterns are related.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biological stoichiometry of plant production: metabolism, scaling and ecological response to global change

James J. Elser, +6 more
- 01 May 2010 - 
TL;DR: Emerging knowledge of how plant nutrients respond to environmental variables and are connected to size, the effects of global change factors can be better understood.
