Open Science principles for accelerating trait-based science across the Tree of Life

Rachael V. Gallagher, +65 more
TL;DR: How adherence to Open Science principles is key to the OTN community is demonstrated and five activities that can accelerate the synthesis of trait data across the Tree of Life are outlined, thereby facilitating rapid advances to address scientific inquiries and environmental issues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Areas of global importance for conserving terrestrial biodiversity, carbon and water

Martin Jung, +55 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present results from a joint optimization that minimizes the number of threatened species, maximizes carbon retention and water quality regulation, and ranks terrestrial conservation priorities globally.
Journal ArticleDOI

Variation in reproductive success across captive populations: Methodological differences, potential biases and opportunities

Simon C. Griffith, +55 more
- 01 Jan 2017 - 
TL;DR: Examination of the zebra finch reveals extensive variation in the success with which different laboratories and studies bred their subjects, and overall only 64% of all females that were given the opportunity, bred successfully in the laboratory.
Journal ArticleDOI

Higher temperatures during development reduce body size in the zebra finch in the laboratory and in the wild.

TL;DR: The results suggest a proximate causal link between temperature and body size and suggest that a hotter climate during breeding periods could drive significant changes in morphology within and between populations.
Journal ArticleDOI

AusTraits, a curated plant trait database for the Australian flora.

Daniel S. Falster, +219 more
- 30 Sep 2021 - 
TL;DR: The AusTraits database as discussed by the authors is a collection of values of plant traits for taxa in the Australian flora, including physiological measures of performance (e.g. photosynthetic gas exchange, water-use efficiency) to morphological attributes (ee. g. leaf area, seed mass, plant height) which link to aspects of ecological variation.
