Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Early seedling trait values shifted greatly during development.
- Method / resource Seedling traits generally differed from average database values.
- Observation Trait shifts were greatest in forbs compared with grasses.
- Observation Seedling SLA decreased over time.
- Observation Seedling RSR increased over time.
- Observation Seedling RDMC increased over time.
- Method / resource The authors conclude database traits may poorly predict seedling values.
- Recommendation The authors recommend incorporating ontogenetic trait variation into ecological and restoration studies.
