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

Brazil's neglected biome: The South Brazilian Campos

Gerhard E. Overbeck, +8 more
- 11 Dec 2007 - 
TL;DR: Urgent needs are identified to create more conservation units in different regions, including different grassland types throughout southern Brazil, to develop proper management strategies where grasslands are subject to shrub encroachment and forest expansion and to raise public awareness of the value and vulnerability of this vegetation type.
Journal ArticleDOI

Worldwide evidence of a unimodal relationship between productivity and plant species richness

Lauchlan H. Fraser, +62 more
- 17 Jul 2015 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, by using data from coordinated surveys conducted throughout grasslands worldwide and comprising a wide range of site productivities, the authors provide evidence in support of the humped-back model (HBM) pattern at both global and regional extents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biodiversity recovery of Neotropical secondary forests

Danaë M. A. Rozendaal, +97 more
- 01 Mar 2019 - 
TL;DR: This work assesses how tree species richness and composition recover during secondary succession across gradients in environmental conditions and anthropogenic disturbance in an unprecedented multisite analysis for the Neotropics.
