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

A global meta-analysis of the relative extent of intraspecific trait variation in plant communities

Andrew Siefert, +51 more
- 01 Dec 2015 - 
TL;DR: This paper conducted a meta-analysis of the relative extent of ITV within and among plant communities worldwide, using a data set encompassing 629 communities (plots) and 36 functional traits.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence of the ‘plant economics spectrum’ in a subarctic flora

Grégoire T. Freschet, +3 more
- 01 Mar 2010 - 
TL;DR: The findings strongly suggest that plant resource economics is consistent across species’ organs in a subarctic flora, and provide the first evidence for a ‘plant economics spectrum’ closely related to the local subarctica ‘leaf economics spectrum'.
Journal ArticleDOI

Linking litter decomposition of above‐ and below‐ground organs to plant–soil feedbacks worldwide

Grégoire T. Freschet, +9 more
- 01 Jul 2013 - 
TL;DR: It is found that decomposition rates of leaves, fine roots and fine stems were coordinated across species worldwide although less strongly within ecosystems, and a major role for below-ground litter as a driver of ecosystem organic matter dynamics is suggested.
