Abstract

This document describes the schema available from the APD namespace. The APD offers detailed descriptions for more than 500 plant trait concepts. It includes trait focused on plant morphology, plant nutrient concentrations, plant physiology, plant life history, and plant fire response. The definitions will be useful to researchers from diverse disciplines, including plant functional ecology, plant taxonomy, and conservation biology. All trait concepts are supported by comprehensive metadata including trait descriptions, allowable trait values, allowable ranges, preferred units, keywords, references, and links to matches in a selection of trait databases. The traits describe here also fully support the AusTraits plant trait database, <doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3568417>.

1. Introduction

The APD is a compilation of the traits concepts used by AusTraits, a database of Australian plant traits. APD includes definitions for nearly 500 traits pertaining to plant functional ecology and plant morphology. The metadata for each trait concept has been reviewed by multiple people. Metadata includes a trait definition, accepted units and ranges (for numeric traits), allowable values (for categorical traits), keywords and trait groupings to enhance trait findability, references, and links to identical/similar traits in other trait databases. APD will be published in a machine-readable format (rdf representation), allowing the traits to be readily re-used by other databases. This is a human-friendly output, with embedded links to the references, other trait databases and keywords/concepts borrowed from other ontologies.

The APD is a community resource and we welcome any suggestions for edits, including additional key references for each trait or other trait databases for which we should add links.

2. Trait groups

The APD Trait groups express broad trait groupings, with each trait concept mapped into one or more trait groups as narrower concepts.

Maximum vertical height of the vegetative shoot system for a taxon in a given location.
comments	This trait is not meant to document the height of all individuals sampled, but instead the maximum height for a typical mature individual within a population or across a taxon. The trait should only be scored for self-supporting plants, not climbers whose height is dependent on the surrounding vegetation. The documented height should be the maximum height achieved by vegetative shoots, not the height reached by reproductive shoots, as it represents the plant’s access to light.

description	A stem morphology trait [TO:0000361] which is the maximum [NCIT:C25564] diameter at breast height [ECSO:00000549] for a taxon [NCIT:C40098] in a given population [PCO:0000001] or location [NCIT:C25341]. Maximum diameter at breast height (DBH) for a taxon in a given location. It is commonly referred to as ‘DBH’.
comments	This trait is always meant to be measured at ‘breast height’, 1.4 m above the ground surface. However, for short plants this will not always be the case, so it is advised to read the methods to confirm at what height plant diameters have been recorded. This trait is not meant to document the DBH of all individuals sampled, but instead the maximum DBH for a typical mature individual within a population or across a taxon.

description	A leaf area trait [TO:0000540] which is the 2-D [PATO:0001709] area [PATO:0001323] of the leaf lamina [PO:0020039] and petiole [PO:0020038]. For some species the area of a leaf analogue is reported, possibly a leaflet [PO:0020049], cladode [PO:0025354], or phyllode [PO:0025335]. The 2-dimensional projected (scanned) area of the surface of a leaf or a leaf analogue (leaflet, cladode, phyllode).
comments	This trait includes measurements of leaves and leaf analogues, including leaflets, cladodes, and phyllodes. When a measurement is made on a leaf analogue, the tissue measured should be documented as part of the methods or noted as a context or under measurement_remarks. Leaflet area can alternatively be mapped to the trait leaflet_area. It is most common for leaf area measurements to include the petiole; the measurement methods should indicate if the petiole is included in or excluded from the leaf area measurements. For terete leaves, leaf area should still be recorded as the 2-dimensional projected area.

alternative label	leaf_width
description	The maximum [NCIT:C25564] width [PATO:0000921] axis of a leaf [PO:0025034] measured perpendicular to [PATO:0002434] the leaf length [PATO:0000122]. Maximum width axis of a leaf or a leaf analogue (a leaflet, cladode, or phyllode), measured perpendicular to the leaf length.
comments	This trait refers to the single line marking the maximum width of the leaf lamina. For a compound leaf the correct measure is the maximum width of the total leaf blade. It is the width measure that will be reported in taxonomic treatments. It is not the effective_leaf_width, a trait that records the diameter of the largest circle that can be drawn within the leaf lamina. If a leaf analogue (leaflet, cladode, or phyllode) is measured instead of a true leaf, this should be noted as a context or under measurement_remarks.

comments	Leaf thickness measurements submitted from the ecological literature will generally avoid the midrib, but not avoid lower order leaf veins. In contrast, leaf thickness measurements from the taxonomic literature will usually include any veins or midribs, because in this literature leaf thickness is generally measured on succulent plants. The methods field should document whether the midrib was explicitly included, excluded, or ignored.

Categorical root system descriptions that indicate the branchiness and texture of the root system and the depth of the root system.
comments	The trait values listed are those specified in the root system classification scheme proposed by Cannon in 1949.
value type	categorical variable
has narrower	root_system_classification_type_i The primary root is fibrous or fleshy and is relatively long; mesophytic. root_system_classification_type_ii The primary root is relatively short and is fibrous. Roots are well branched in a dry habitat but branch little in one that is wet. root_system_classification_type_iii The primary root is usually long and fibrous. The first order lateral roots are well branched and are usually short; they are rather evenly distributed along the primary root; xerophytic. root_system_classification_type_iv The primary root is usually long and slender like that of Type II. The first order lateral roots are well branched. Those closest to the surface of the ground, or not far below, are relatively long; xerophytic and mesophytic. root_system_classification_type_v The primary root is divided-forked or branched-and fibrous, and with few first order lateral roots, or, in age, apparently with none; xerophytic. root_system_classification_type_vi The primary root is usually as in Type V. The first order lateral roots are mostly on the upper portion of the primary root and are thus relatively superficial; xerophytic or in well aerated sandy soil where the rainfall is not light. root_system_classification_type_vii Adventitious roots that are in one group and arise on a short horizontal, or vertical, axis of the shoot. They are fibrous or fleshly; mesophytic and hydrophytic. root_system_classification_type_viii Adventitious roots that are in one group and are fibrous and fleshy, or fibrous and thick. The fibrous adventitious roots are absorbing-anchoring roots and are usually with laterals to the second order; meophytic. root_system_classification_type_ix Adventitious roots that arise on the aerial stem and branches of some herbaceous taxa, shrubs, and trees; on creepers, vines, and runners; and on subterranean rhizomes and stolons.

Orientation of anther at anthesis.
comments	Anthers of angiosperms are rather uniform in their basic structure. They normally have four microsporangia (pollen sacs) that are arranged pair-wise in two thecae. The two microsporangia of a theca usually release their pollen grains through a common opening (stomium). Often, it is difficult to establish anther orientation clearly in a flower as this is a gradual feature with many intermediate stages.

Filament presence and shape

Property	Value
URI	https://w3id.org/APD/traits/trait_0012432
label	Filament presence and shape
alternative label	flower_filament
description	A floral organ morphology trait [TO:0000862] which is whether a filament [PO:0009067] is present [PATO:0000467] or absent [PATO:0000462], and if present, the shape [PATO:0000052] and the relative length [PATO:0000122], width [PATO:0000921], and thickness [PATO:0000915] of the filament. Trait that considers the absence or presence of the filament, and in the latter case, the shape of the filament. Shape is considered in terms of length and width and is defined in relation to anther length/width.
comments	The width of the filament may thus either be broad as in laminar (e.g., Eupomatiaceae) or bulky stamens (e.g., Chloranthaceae), or narrow (filamentous) as found in many core eudicots groups (e.g., Rosaceae). This trait is considered inapplicable when filaments are entirely fused with each other or to the perianth.

Property	Value

label	Fusion of filaments to inner perianth series
alternative label	flower_filament_fusion_to_inner_perianth
description	A floral organ morphology trait [TO:0000862] which is the proportion [PATO:0001470] of the length [PATO:0000122] of the stamen [PO:0009029] (or staminode [PO:0009077]) filaments [PO:0009067] that are fused [NCIT:C124537] to the innermost perianth [PO:0009058] organ [PO:0009008] at anthesis [PO:0009068]. The fusion of filaments with the innermost perianth organs at anthesis on a continuous scale, from 0 (filaments completely free from perianth) to 1 (filaments fused along their entire length with the perianth; the ‘entire length’ of the filament is defined as the distance between the floral base and the joint between filament and anther).
comments	Partial fusion is recorded using an approximate number between these two extremes (e.g., 0.1 corresponds to basal fusion, 0.5 to fusion along half of the length of perianth parts). If two (or more) stamen whorls (including staminodial whorls) differ in their extent of filament fusion with the perianth, this trait is recorded as a range of values. For example, if the filaments of an outermost stamen whorl are fused, up to 90% of their length, but an inner whorl only up to 50%, the trait is assigned a range of 0.5 to 0.9. The rationale for this is to provide a general trait that allows comparison of fusion among all angiosperms. Definition derived from Schoenenberger et al. (2020) for their character ‘308.

Placentation

Property	Value
URI	https://w3id.org/APD/traits/trait_0012442
label	Placentation
alternative label	flower_gynoecium_placentation
description	A floral organ morphology trait [TO:0000862] which is the position [PATO:0000140] of the ovules [PO:0020003] within the ovary [PO:0009072], known as placentation [APD:glossary/40074]. The different types of placentation in apocarpous/unicarpellate and in syncarpous gynoecia.
comments	In apocarpous and unicarpellate gynoecia, placentation is often described as marginal as the ovules are usually attached along the ventral slit (i.e., the zone where the carpel margins become postgenitally closed during carpel development). In syncarpous gynoecia there are three main types of placentation, 1) axile placentation refers to ovaries where the ovules are placed in the angle between carpel flanks in the center of the ovary; 2) in ovaries with parietal placentation the ovules attach to the ovary wall where two carpels meet; 3) in ovaries with free-central placentation the ovules are attached to a central column that emerges from the base of the ovary and protrudes into the non-septate ovary. It is not unusual that syncarpous gynoecia show a transition from proximally axile to a distally parietal placentation (e.g., Polemoniaceae). Basal and apical placentation may occur both in apocarpous/unicarpellate and in syncarpous gynoecia. Usually there is one longitudinal series of ovules attached to each carpel margin. However, both in apocarpous/unicarpellate and in syncarpous gynoecia there may be more than one series of ovules at the flanks of a carpel. These latter cases are referred to as laminar (or laminar-diffuse) placentation (e.g., in some Nymphaeaceae). A placenta that is protruding from its surroundings and has more than two series of ovules (either axile or parietal) is called protruding-diffuse.

alternative label	flower_ovary_position
description	A floral organ morphology trait [TO:0000862] which is the position [PATO:0000140] of the plant ovary [PO:0009072] relative to the other flower [PO:0009046] organs [PO:0009008], in particular whether the ovary is attached above or below the perianth [PO:0009058] organs (the petals [PO:0009032] and sepals [PO:0009031]). The position of the flower ovary relative to the insertion level of the remaining floral organs.
comments	The ovary is the part of the gynoecium where the ovules are produced. The ovary may be located on the receptacle and thus be positioned above the insertion level of the remaining floral organs (i.e., the ovary is superior and the flower is hypogynous). Alternatively, the ovary may be embedded in the receptacle and therefore be located below the insertion level of the remaining floral organs (i.e., the ovary is inferior and the flower is epigynous). Flowers with a hypanthium may either have a superior ovary (perigyny; e.g., many Rosaceae) or an inferior ovary (epiperigyny). It is also possible that the ovary is inferior to a certain degree only, such as half-inferior, if the receptacle is surrounding the ovary to its mid-level.

Perianth differentiation

Property	Value
URI	https://w3id.org/APD/traits/trait_0012461
label	Perianth differentiation
alternative label	flower_perianth_differentiation
description	A floral organ morphology trait [TO:0000862] which indicates whether petals [PO:0009032] and sepals [PO:0009031] are differentiated or identical and the various ways they can be identical or different. The ways in which perianth organs may look different from each other in a given flower.
comments	Typically, outer perianth parts are sepaloid and protect the other floral organs during floral development, while inner organs are often petaloid and play a role in pollinator attraction (Endress, 1994). However, it is also possible that all parts are either sepaloid or petaloid but remain differentiated in shape, size, and/or texture. In case of spiral perianths, differentiation may be continuous (i.e., gradual), whereby two successively initiated organs are very similar or only slightly different, while the outermost and innermost organs at both ends of the spiral are very different from each other (e.g., Chimonanthus). In the special case of perianths consisting of a single whorl, they are scored as undifferentiated. This perianth differentiation trait may be seen as both functional (the parting vs. sharing of functions among perianth parts) and developmental (the expression of a genetic program for different forms of perianth parts vs. a single program for a single type of perianth part morphology). Within-whorl differentiation, whereby organs of the same whorl take different forms, is common in zygomorphic flowers (e.g., Balsaminaceae, Fabaceae, Orchidaceae) but is not taken into account with this trait. This trait is not applicable when the perianth is absent. Definition and trait values derived from Schoenenberger et al. (2020) for their character ‘234. Perianth differentiation (D1)’

label	Fusion of perianth
alternative label	flower_perianth_fusion
description	A floral organ morphology trait [TO:0000862] which is the proportion [PATO:0001470] of the length [PATO:0000122] of perianth [PO:0009058] parts (sepals [PO:0009031], petals [PO:0009032], and tepals [PO:0009033]) that are fused [NCIT:C124537] together at anthesis [PO:0009068]. Fusion of perianth organs (congenital or postgenital) at anthesis, recorded on a continuous scale, from 0 (free parts) to 1 (parts fused along their entire length).
comments	Partial fusion was recorded using an approximate number between these two extremes (e.g., 0.1 corresponds to basal fusion, 0.5 to fusion along half of the length of perianth parts). In case of multiple whorls, this trait records within-whorl fusion. For example, if organs within each whorl are fused along their entire length, a trait value of 1 is recorded. In cases where organs of two whorls are fused into a common tubular structure, such as frequently observed in monocots (e.g., Polygonatum), the perianth is considered to be fused. If the two (or more) whorls differed in their extent of fusion, a range of trait values may be recorded. For example, if the calyx is only basally fused, up to 10% of its length, but the corolla is entirely fused, a range of 0.1 to 1 is recorded as the trait value for the species.

Number of perianth parts

Property	Value
URI	https://w3id.org/APD/traits/trait_0012464
label	Number of perianth parts
alternative label	flower_perianth_parts_count
description	A perianth morphology trait [TO:0000275] which is the total count [NCIT:C25463] of perianth [PO:0009058] parts, including sepals [PO:0009031], petals [PO:0009032], and any form of tepal [PO:0009033]. The total number of perianth parts, including sepals, petals, or any form of tepal.
comments	A value of zero was scored when the perianth is absent. In flowers with perianth whorls fused along their complete length (e.g., Convolvulus), perianth parts are counted based on merism (e.g., if a calyx has 5 distinct sepals and the corolla is entirely fused, then the corolla is often interpreted to consist of five fused petals), anatomy (e.g., number of vascular traces), development (e.g., number of primordia), or comparison with closely related taxa.

Perianth phyllotaxis

Property	Value
URI	https://w3id.org/APD/traits/trait_0012465
label	Perianth phyllotaxis
alternative label	flower_perianth_phyllotaxis
description	A perianth morphology trait [TO:0000275] which is the phyllotaxy [TO:0006014] of the perianth [PO:0009058] parts (petals [PO:0009032], sepals [PO:0009031], and tepals [PO:0009033]), at anthesis [PO:0009068] Perianth phyllotaxis at anthesis.
comments	Perianth parts may be organised in one or more whorls or along a continuous spiral, usually with wide divergence angles more or less equal to 137.5 degrees. Less frequently, perianth phyllotaxis may be irregular. Perianth phyllotaxis at anthesis may differ from phyllotaxis of perianth part primordia at their inception and it is not uncommon that spirally initiated perianths become whorled later through development. Definition and trait values derived from Schoenenberger et al. (2020) for their character ‘230. Perianth phyllotaxy (D1)’, with more information of differentiating between trait values in this manuscript.

description	A perianth morphology trait [TO:0000275] which is the symmetry [PATO:0000965] of the perianth [PO:0009058] (petals [PO:0009032], sepals [PO:0009031], and tepals [PO:0009033]), whereby a perianth is only considered actinomorphic [PATO:0001328] if all perianth whorls [PO:0025023] are actinomorphic. Trait capturing the symmetry of the perianth.
comments	This trait is applied to the perianth as a whole. In case of flowers with two or more perianth whorls, species are considered actinomorphic if all whorls are actinomorphic and as zygomorphic if one or more whorls are zygomorphic. Trait is not applicable when the perianth is missing. Definition and trait values derived from Schoenenberger et al. (2020) for their character ‘207. Symmetry of perianth (D1)’

Pollen grain aperture shape

Property	Value
URI	https://w3id.org/APD/traits/trait_0012471
label	Pollen grain aperture shape
alternative label	flower_pollen_aperture_shape
description	A floral organ morphology trait [TO:0000862] which is the shape [PATO:0000052], structure [PATO:0000141], and position [PATO:0000140] of the pollen grain [PO:0025281] apertures [GO:0062074]. Pollen grains are often described according to the shape, structure, and position of their apertures. This trait describes the main shape of the many described aperture types.
comments	Aperture terminology is partly determined by the position of the aperture on the pollen grain (either at the pole or at the equator) and pollen grain polarity, in turn, is determined by the spatial orientation of the microspore in the meiotic tetrad.

description	A floral organ morphology trait [TO:0000862] which is the count [NCIT:C25463] of pollen apertures [GO:0062074] per pollen [PO:0025281] grain. The number of apertures per pollen grain as a continuous character.
comments	A pollen aperture is a structurally delimited region of the pollen grain wall through which the pollen tube emerges during pollen germination and which plays a role in harmomegathy. A value of zero is scored when pollen is inaperturate (i.e. when there is no distinct aperture). Aperturate pollen is scored with integer values of 1 and above.

label	Number of structural carpels
alternative label	flower_structural_carpels_count
description	A floral organ morphology trait [TO:0000862] which is the count [NCIT:C25463] of both fertile [PATO:0000955] and female sterile [PATO:0000892] carpels [PO:0009030] in a hermaphrodite [PATO:0001340] flower [PO:0009046] or female [PATO:0000383] flower. Number of fertile or sterile carpels in bisexual or female flowers, recorded as a continuous character (with integer values of 1 and above).
comments	Includes the number of co-occurring carpellodes (sterile carpels) because this number is often more easily obtained from the literature than the actual number of fertile carpels. However, the number of carpellodes in male flowers is ignored for this character. In multicarpellate, unilocular gynoecia with complete carpel fusion up to the stigma (e.g., Primula), it may be difficult to assess the number of carpels unequivocally. In such cases, the number of carpels is scored only if it is well established based on atomical or developmental investigations. Similarly, in gynoecia where one or more carpels are reduced (e.g., in the pseudomonomerous gynoecia of some Arecaceae, Stauffer et al., 2002), the total number of structural carpels is only scored when unequivocally determined in the literature.

description	A fruit morphology trait [TO:0002629] which is the botanical classification [NCIT:C25161] or type [NCIT:C25284] of a fruit [PO:0009001]. Botanical fruit type classification.
comments	Although this trait is explicitly for fruit types, it includes a single term strobilus to describe the ‘fruiting body’ of non-flowering plants.
value type	categorical variable
has narrower	fruit_type_achene A simple, dry, indehiscent fruit with a single seed that is attached to the pericarp at one point only. (Synonyms, cypsela) fruit_type_anthocarp A ripened ovary surrounded by attached accessory floral tissues; the floral tissues may be fleshy or dry. (Synonyms, accessory_fruit, pseudocarp, diclesium) fruit_type_berry A simple, indehiscent fruit with one to many seeds embedded in a fleshy pericarp. fruit_type_capsule A dry, dehiscent fruit composed of two or more united carpels; different types of capsules distinguished by type of dehiscence (e.g. valves, slits, pores). fruit_type_caryopsis A simple, dry, indehiscent fruit with a single seed which is fused to the pericarp at one point only; the fruit type of all Poaceae (Synonyms, grain) fruit_type_compound_fruit_other A fruit derived from more than one flower. (Synonyms, aggregate_fruit) fruit_type_drupe A simple indehiscent fruit with a hard, stony endocarp and a fleshy mesocarp. fruit_type_follicle A dry, dehiscent fruit derived from a single carpel that splits along one suture. fruit_type_legume A dry, dehiscent fruit derived from a single carpel that splits along two sutures; applies to Fabaceae. (Synonyms, pod) fruit_type_legume_indehiscent A dry, indehiscent fruit derived from a single carpel; applies to Fabaceae. fruit_type_mericarp A fruitlet (seed-containing portion of a fruit) that is a half-carpel; the individual fruitlets separate from one another at maturity; a specific type of schizocarp. (In some datasets, term likely refers to any fruitlet derived from a portion of a schizocarp that separates at maturity, not explicitly just a half-carpel.) fruit_type_multiple_fruit A fruit composed of several fruitlets developing from a single flower (e.g. raspberries, magnolias); fruits developing from more than one flower are included under compound (aggregate) fruits. (Synonym, apocarp) fruit_type_nut A simple, dry, indehiscent fruit with a single seed and a hard pericarp. fruit_type_nutlet A diminutive of nut, referring to a simple, dry, indehiscent structure with a single seed that might be an entire fruit (nut; monocarp) or a portion of a fruit, such as the individual components derived from an apocarp (fruit with multiple unfused ovaries) or schizocarp (fruit with multiple ovaries that separate at maturity). fruit_type_pepo A fleshy fruit derived from a single ovary that is divided into several carpels, has multiple seeds, and has a tough rind when mature. fruit_type_pome A fleshy fruit with the bulk of the fleshy tissue derived from flora tissue that surrounds the inferior ovary. fruit_type_pyrene A fleshy fruit in which the seed(s) are covered by a hard layer of endocarp. fruit_type_samara A winged, dry fruit. fruit_type_schizocarp Category that includes all fruits derived from a compound pistil that separate into individual carpellary constituents at maturity; broad terms that includes dry and fleshy fruits, some with accessory tissues, others without. The individual seed-containing units that a schizocarp breaks apart into include mericarps, nutlets, and fruitlets. fruit_type_silique A type of capsule (dry, dehiscent fruit) where the fruit is divided into two parts by a thin partition; more than three times as long as wide; applies to Brassicaceae (Synonyms, silicle, siliqua) fruit_type_strobilus A modified reproductive shoot system found in many nonflowering plants, especially gymnosperms, comprised of overlapping bracts (scales). (Synonyms, cone) fruit_type_syncarp A compound fruit produced by the adhesion of the fruits from several flowers. fruit_type_syconium A fleshy compound fruit, in which the fruitlets are enclosed in accessory material, such as the hollow-centered fruits of Moraceae. (Synonyms, synconium, fig) fruit_type_utricle A bladdery or inflated dry fruit with a single seed; essential an achene in which the pericarp is significantly larger than the mature seed.

Seed dry mass

Property	Value
URI	https://w3id.org/APD/traits/trait_0012610
label	Seed dry mass
alternative label	seed_dry_mass
description	A seed morphology trait [TO:0000184] which is the dry [PATO:0001824] mass [PATO:0000125] of a mature [PATO:0001701] seed [PO:0009010]. Dry mass of a mature seed, including both oven dried and air-dried samples.
comments	Standard methods people will have used to dry seeds include, ‘fresh’ (at dispersal, mature); ‘air dried’ (at local ambient conditions); ‘seed bank air dried’ (to 15% relative humidity); and ‘oven dried’ (>100 deg C for a set number of hours; e.g. seed bank standard is 103 deg C for 17 hours). It is expected that some observations in AusTraits mapped onto <U+00E2><U+20AC><U+02DC>seed_dry_mass’ will actually include both the seed and some dispersal tissue, if the two cannot easily be separated; these should be mapped to ‘diaspore_dry_mass’.

label	Diaspore dry mass
alternative label	diaspore_dry_mass
description	A seed morphology trait [TO:0000184] which is the dry [PATO:0001824] mass [PATO:0000125] of a seed [PO:0009010] and the seed dispersal [EnvThes:21042] structures [PATO:0000141]. Dry mass of a plant’s dispersal unit, including the seed and any dispersal appendages; synonymous with the term dispersule and often synonymous with the term disseminule.
comments	Data mapped onto this trait have been very explicitly defined as a ‘diaspore’. There will be additional values mapped as either ‘seed_dry_mass’ or ‘fruit_dry_mass’ that are also diaspores, but have identified only as being a ‘seed’ or ‘fruit’. In addition, it is expected that some observations in AusTraits mapped onto ‘seed_dry_mass’ will actually include both the seed and some dispersal tissue, if the two cannot easily be separated.

comments	Observations of this trait in AusTraits are almost certainly an undocumented mix of dimensions of true seeds and diaspores. When all or part of the fruit is not easily separated from the true seed, many researchers will have recorded and submitted a diaspore length, but labeled the data ‘seed length’. The intent of this measurement is that it excludes appendages, although it is likely some submitted measurements include small appendages that are not easily separated from the seed.

description	A vascular tissue morphology trait [TO:0000470] which is a weighted arithmetic mean [STATO:0000398] diameter [PATO:0001334] of xylem vessels [PO:0025417] in a stem [PO:0009047], reflecting the greater relative contribution of wider vessels to hydraulic conductivity [EnvThes:22133] as described by the Hagen-Poiseuille equation [hupson:SCAIVPH_00000131] . Hydraulic diameter (or hydraulically weighted diameter) is a weighted arithmetic mean diameter of xylem vessels in a stem, reflecting the greater contribution of wide vessels to actual hydraulic conductivity. It is based on the Hagen-Poiseuille law, a fluid dynamics equation that describes laminar flow through a tube. It shows that a few large conduits transport an equal amount of water as many small ones, as flow rate is proportional to the 4th power of the conduit’s diameter.

Leaf xylem vessel diameter

Property	Value
URI	https://w3id.org/APD/traits/trait_0013115
label	Leaf xylem vessel diameter
alternative label	leaf_vessel_diameter
description	A vascular tissue morphology trait [TO:0000470] which is the diameter [PATO:0001334] of xylem vessels [PO:0025417] in a leaf [PO:0025034]. Diameter of xylem vessels in a leaf.
comments	As the adjacent vessels in an individual stem vary notably in size, this trait should never document a single vessel diameter from an individual, but instead the mean (or possibly maximum) vessel diameter from a much larger sample size. Note as well, that vessel diameters increase from a growing tip to the base of a plant and the location sampled should be specified in either the methods or as a context property.

description	A bark [PO:0004518] physical quality [PATO:0002079] trait which is the bark’s modulus of elasticity [SWEET:propPressure/ModulusOfElasticity], its resistance to being deformed [SWEET:phenSolid/Deform] elastically [PATO:0001031] (non-permanently) when a force [PATO:0001035] is applied. It is calculated as the ratio of the force applied to bark per unit area (stress) to the bark’s deformation (bending). A measure of stem stiffness and elasticity, which is how much the bark is deformed elastically (bends) under stress. It is calculated as the ratio of the force applied to bark per unit area (stress) to the bark’s deformation (bending). The trait is also called Young’s modulus for bark.

It is calculated as the ratio of the force applied to wood per unit area (stress) to the stem’s deformation (bending). A measure of stem stiffness and elasticity, which is how much the stem is deformed elastically (bends) under stress. It is calculated as the ratio of the force applied to stem per unit area (stress) to the stem’s deformation (bending). This is the modulus of a compound tissue made up of bark and wood (or xylem) and potentially pith and could also be called structural modulus of elasticity. Trait is also called Young’s modulus for a stem.

description	Maximum [NCIT:C25564] quantum yield [TO:0012004] of photosystem II [GO:0009539], as determined through chlorophyll fluorescence [GO:0090546]. Quantum yield is the ratio [PATO:0001470] of photons [NCIT:C88112] absorbed to photons emitted [SIO:000384] through fluorescence. A trait that indicates the health of photosystem II in a dark adapted leaf. Quantum yield is calculated as the ratio of variable fluorescence (Fv) to maximum fluorescence (Fm), with a higher value indicating a healthier leaf. Variable fluorescence (Fv) is calculated as the difference in fluorescence between a leaf where all photsystems have been saturated by light (Fm) and a leaf in a dark-adapted state (minimum fluorescence; Fo).

URI	https://w3id.org/APD/traits/trait_0021030
label	Pre-dawn water potential
alternative label	water_potential_predawn
description	The shoot system [PO:0009006] water potential [EnvThes:22311] just before sunrise, a proxy for soil water potential [EnvThes:22283] and representing the plant’s daily maximum [NCIT:C25564] (least negative) water potential. The water potential of a plant’s shoot system just before sunrise, a proxy for soil water potential and the plant’s highest (least negative) water potential for the day.
comments	Predawn water potential is often assumed to equal the soil water potential, but the plant’s water potential does not necessarily equilibrate with soil water potential overnight. It is therefore better considered a ‘proxy’ of soil water potential.

Plant growth form

Property	Value
URI	https://w3id.org/APD/traits/trait_0030010
label	Plant growth form
alternative label	plant_growth_form
description	A whole plant [PO:0000003] phenotype [NCIT:C16977] trait that summarises different components of a whole plant’s shape [PATO:0000052] and structure [PATO:0000141] into general groups [NCIT:C43359]. Characters that contribute to the plant form categories include the height [PATO:0000119] of the vegetative shoot system [PO:0025607], the distribution of leaves [PO:0025034] along the plant stem [PO:0009047], and the position [PATO:0000140] and count [NCIT:C25463] of stems and/or leaves relative to the ground surface. The form of a plant, capturing a general sense of plant height and shape, which parts of a plant are woody versus herbaceous, the number of stems arising at ground level, and the distribution of leaves relative to the main stem.
comments	This definition of plant growth form is narrower than what is used by many other references. Here, information pertaining to where a plant grows is captured by plant_growth_substrate. Terminology about the shape and length of stems and distribution of leaves is included in stem_growth_habit. An indication of whether a plant is parasitic is presented in parasitic. Included in the list of plant growth forms are two terms that are exclusively used to describe Australian plants, mallee and hummock, and one, tussock, that is an important growth form of Australian grasses, but globally used less frequently.
value type	categorical variable
has narrower	plant_growth_form_herb A seed-bearing plant which does not have a woody above-ground stem; when available this term has been divided into more detailed terms. (Synonyms, forb) plant_growth_form_subshrub A plant that is only woody at the base, with the remainder of the stems regenerating yearly. This term is not meant to encompass short-lived plants that are only borderline woody. (Synonyms, suffrutescent) plant_growth_form_shrub A woody plant that is distinguished by NOT being a tree, due to one of more of the following characteristics, 1) they are less than 8 metres in height; 2) if a plant community includes trees, the shrubs are shorter than the surrounding trees and not part of the canopy; 3) in comparison to trees, the leaves are more distributed along the entire trunk; 4) the plant has multiple relatively narrow stems arising at or near ground level. The definition of shrub is complex, as there are many single-stemmed shrubs within Australia and many taxa that are described in the taxonomic literature as a shrub or small tree. plant_growth_form_mallee Refers to Eucalyptus species which are small trees that form a large lignotuber. They have multiple stems arising at or near ground level and regenerate from the lignotuber following fire. plant_growth_form_tree A tall, woody, perennial plant, usually with a single main trunk, and its leaves predominantly elevated above the ground surface. plant_growth_form_graminoid Herbaceous plant with a grass-like morphology that is within the order Poales. Taxa both with and without a tussock form are mapped to this term. This term is most frequently applied to three large monocot families, Poaceae, Cyperaceae, and Juncaceae, but the term could apply to other taxa within Poales with a grass-like morphology, including narrow, linear leaves and non-showy flowers, including Restionaceae, Centrolepidaceae, Anarthriaceae, and Ecdeiocoleaceae. Taxa outside Poales with a grass-like morphology should be designated as herbs and also have the term tufted mapped to the trait stem_growth_habit. plant_growth_form_tussock A subcategory of graminoid, which is a plant where many shoots from the basal meristem form prominent tufts. plant_growth_form_graminoid_not_tussock A subcategory of graminoid, indicating a plant which explicitly lacks a tussock morphology, with the leaves not growing in tufts. plant_growth_form_hummock Plant that grows as a dense mound up to 1 metre in height. The term generally applies only to species within the genera Triodia that form such mounds and these are considered a distinctive and uniquely Australian growth form. plant_growth_form_basal_large A plant whose leaves form a distinctly large basal tuft or rosette, including large acaulescent monocots and cycads. plant_growth_form_geophyte Subcategory of herb, specifically referring to plants that survive the winter/dry season as an organ (rhizome, bulb, corm, or tuber) buried in dry soil, with all leaves dying back each year. plant_growth_form_palmoid Plant that bears a rosette-like canopy of typically large, often compound leaves atop a usually thick (pachycaulous), columnar, unbranched or little-branched stem. Palms, tree ferns, trunked cycads, trunked grass-trees, and Pandanus are mapped to this term. (Synonyms, rosette-tree, palm, grass-tree) plant_growth_form_climber Plant that climbs up another plant’s stem or branches, rather than being able to support itself. Term used only if datasets do not specify if a climbing plant is herbaceous (a vine) or woody (a liana). plant_growth_form_climber_herbaceous Herbaceous plant that climbs up another plant’s stem or branches, rather than being able to support itself. This is usually synonymous with vine. Types of climbers (scrambling, twining) are captured under the trait plant_climbing_mechanism. (Synonyms, vine) plant_growth_form_climber_woody Woody or thick-stemmed (>2 cm) plant that climbs up another plant’s stem or branches, rather than being able to support itself. This is usually synonymous with liana. Woody climbers generally use hooks, tendrils, and/or adventitious roots to climb; the climbing mechanisms used by a taxon are captured under the trait plant_climbing_mechanism. (Synonyms, liana) plant_growth_form_fern A taxonomic grouping; ferns are vascular plants that reproduce via spores. plant_growth_form_lycophyte A taxonomic grouping that includes quillworts, clubmosses, and selaginella.

description	Categorical description of the duration [PATO:0001309] of a plant’s lifespan (longevity [NCIT:C153298]), from seed germination [GO:0009845] to death [GO:0016265]. Categorical description of the duration of a plant’s lifespan, from germination to death.
comments	Studies will differ in the subset of terms they use to describe a plant’s life history, such that some researchers will distinguish between ephemeral and annual species, and other researchers will group these life history categories together under annual. In addition, only a subset of studies will use the term short-lived perennial; the majority will score all perennial plants as perennial. Rangeland studies and post-fire studies are those most likely to score species as ephemeral or short-lived perennial, as these are environments where perennial species’ lifespans are often divided into those that are short-lived due to environmental conditions and those that are able to persist through the environmentally unfavourable period.
value type	categorical variable

description	A whole plant [PO:0000003] life history [ECOCORE:00000018] trait which indicates either the substrate [EFO:0005061] on which a plant grows [GO:0040007] or, broadly, whether the plant grows in an aquatic [EnvThes:21785] or terrestrial [EnvThes:21880] habitat [ENVO:01000739]. Substrate is defined as the surface to which an organism is attached. Trait broadly indicating where a plant is usually found, referencing the habitat in which a plant grows, the substrate to which a plant is attached, or a plant’s growth medium.
comments	Although the majority of vascular plants are terrestrial, for most taxonomic groups plant growth substrate is only recorded if a plant is not terrestrial. The exceptions are ferns and orchids, where both floras and individual researchers tend to specifically indicate which taxa are terrestrial. The values under this trait are recorded as part of plant growth form by many researchers, trait handbooks, and databases; they have been split out here, as the terms capturing what a plant is attached to do not generally describe the form of a plant.

Trait indicating a plant’s primary photosynthetic organ or tissue.
comments	This trait is not intended to record the presence of primary versus secondary photosynthetic organs; only the primary photosynthetic organ should be keyed in. Many of the allowable values for this trait are frequently included under leaf type or leaf form. Here, we separate terms pertaining to the general form of the leaf (in the trait leaf_type) from those identifying the plant organ responsible for photosynthesis.

Trait indicating the strategies used by a plant to obtain or produce energy (carbohydrates) or nutrients, including photosynthesis and various saprophytic and carnivorous energy and nutrient acquisition mechanisms.
comments	Although the majority of vascular plants use photosynthesis to produce their own carbohydrates, this trait mostly includes data for the few taxa that are not photosynthetic. Likewise, it captures alternative nutrient acquisition strategies. See also the trait parasitic which captures data on whether plants are parasitic (or partially parasitic), forming haustoria to penetrate their host plant.

description	The duration [PATO:0001309] that an individual leaf [PO:0025034] is attached to the stem [PO:0009047] and is physiologically functional [PATO:0001510]. Duration of time that an individual leaf is attached to the stem and physiologically functional; leaf longevity.
comments	Leaf lifespan is the inverse of the rate of leaf turnover. For some species, leaflets or other portions of a leaf may be censused rather than the entire leaf lamina. Leaf lifespan can be censused as either the rate of shedding leaves (leaf death) or the rate of formation of new leaves (leaf birth).

description	A whole plant [PO:0000003] phenotype [NCIT:C16977] trait that indicates if a plant is involved in a parasitic [ECOCORE:00000146] symbiosis [ECOCORE:00000022] where it forms haustorium [GO:0085035] on a host [GO:0018995] plant and the host plant provides all or some of its high energy [PATO:0001021] carbon [CHEBI:27594] compounds [NCIT:C43366], mineral nutrition (nutrients [CHEBI:33284]) and/or water [CHEBI:15377]. Trait indicating whether a plant forms haustoria and obtains part or all of its energy-rich carbon compounds (photosynthetic sugars), mineral nutrition and/or water directly from another plant (its host) in an interaction that does not benefit the host plant.
comments	Plants described as parasitic in the context of this trait always have haustoria, specialised organs that penetrate the host plants’s vascular bundles. The trait root_structures documents symbiotic relationships with fungi. The trait plant_energy_acquisition_strategy documents specialised strategies or specialised organs or tissues plants use to obtain carbon or mineral nutrition.

description	The age [NCIT:C25150] of a plant when it is capable of sexual reproduction [GO:0000003], which is the time interval (duration) [PATO:0001309] between seed germination [GO:0009845] and when a plant is able to produce mature [PATO:0001701] seed [PO:0009010]. The age of a plant when they are able to set seed, indicating it is reproductively mature.
comments	Although reproductive maturity should be marked by the ability to set viable seed, this trait will often be scored as when plants first produce flowers, as this is easier to score. This trait is only meant to capture primary reproductive maturity, not secondary reproductive maturity following a disturbance. See a series of traits starting with fire_time_from_fire_to_flowering and fire_time_from_fire_to_fruiting for measures of secondary reproductive maturity.

description	The taxa [NCIT:C40098] (biotic vectors) and abiotic mechanisms [NCIT:C25343] that disperse [OMIT: 0027297] seeds [PO:0009010] and fruit [PO:0009001] away from a parent plant. Dominant diaspore dispersal agents, including both biotic agents (specific taxa) or abiotic mechanisms responsible for dispersing seeds (or other dispersal units) away from the parent plant.
comments	Allowable terms for biotic dispersal agents include taxa at both the species-level and much broader groupings, reflecting both the different levels of resolution provided by researchers and whether a plant has specific versus broad dispersal agents. Abiotic dispersal mechanisms can likewise be quite general or specific, depending on data availability.

comments	See vegetative_reproduction_ability for a binary description of whether a plant can spread vegetatively. There are two other traits with overlapping trait values, but that are distinct trait concepts: storage_organ indicates the plant structures where a plant stores excess carbohydrates; these organs may or may not facilitate clonal spread; bud_bank_location indicates the location of meristematic tissue (buds) that allow regeneration following a disturbance or after an annual unfavourable season.

description	A plant structure morphology trait [TO:0000839] which is the type [NCIT:C25284] of storage organ [EFO:0000997] a plant has, where a storage organ is a plant part (organ [PO:0009008], tissue [PO:0009007], or other plant structure [PO:0009011]) whose function [NCIT:C25518] is carbohydrate [CHEBI:16646] (energy [PATO:0001021]) storage. Plant structures (tissues, organs, or other structures) where a plant stores excess carbohydrates (energy). The stored energy may be used for future growth, including clonal spread and regrowth following an annual unfavourable season, or for regrowth following a disturbance event (including post-fire regeneration or another disturbance event that causes leaf loss). Trait values include both generic terms and quite specific ones to accommodate the variation in detail provided across datasets.
comments	There are two other traits with overlapping trait values, but that are distinct trait concepts: clonal_spread_mechanism indicates mechanisms and structures a plant actually uses for vegetative spread; not all energy storage organs also allow vegetative spread; bud_bank_location indicates the location of meristematic tissue (buds) that allow regeneration following a disturbance or after an annual unfavourable season. See Pausus, Lamont et al. 2018 (doi.org/10.1111/nph.14982) for detailed descriptions of recolonization ability and level of fire protection provided by each regeneration strategy.

These may be buds that allow a plant to regrow following an unfavourable season or buds that survive [EnvThes:21064] a disturbance event [EnvThes:20373] such as a fire, cyclone or drought. In particular, they may be meristematic tissue that survives a fire [ENVO:01000786] and allows the plant to resprout [Cerrado:fire#PlantResprout] following the fire. The location of buds (meristematic tissue) on a plant that allows it to resprout following a fire, annual unfavourable season, or other disturbance event, such as a drought or cyclone.

Property	Value
URI	https://w3id.org/APD/traits/trait_0030614
label	Post-fire to pre-fire stem ratio
alternative label	resprouting_capacity_stem_ratio
description	A fire response trait which is the ratio [PATO:0001470] of the count [NCIT:C25463] of stems [PO:0009047] per individual [EFO:0000542] following a fire [ENVO:01000786] to the count of stems per individual before the fire, recorded for taxa that have multiple stems emerging from the ground [SWEET:realmSoil/Ground]. Ratio of stem count post-fire to basal stem count (e.g. grass tillers) pre-fire at an individual or population level. This trait is appropriate to score for plants that have many stems from the base (shrubs, herbs, graminoids) where the number of stems is censused both before and after the fire. It is a continuous measure of resprouting strength conditioned on initial size.
comments	This trait will usually be recorded in natural or experimental systems subjected to a controlled burn, where stem counts can be censused both before and after a fire. However, it is appropriate to include data for any plants subjected to fire where the dead stems can still be counted post-fire.

A plant’s ability to regenerate vegetatively (resprout) from a disturbance other than fire that causes 100% defoliation.
comments	This trait explicitly refers to a plant’s vegetative regeneration ability following a disturbance event other than fire. See other resprouting_capacity traits, bud_bank_location, and clonal_spread_mechanism for other information about a plant’s ability to resprout. Just as post-fire resprouting capacity is documented in individuals that have suffered 100% leaf scorch, this trait should be scored only on individuals that have suffered 100% leaf loss. If a different leaf loss percentage is used, this needs to be documented as a context property.

description	Fuel bed bulk density (volume density [PATO:0001353]), which is the ratio [PATO:0001470] of the mass [PATO:0000125] of the fuel bed divided by the fuel bed volume [PATO:0000918]; the term fuel bed refers to the accumulated plant litter [ENVO:01000628] on the ground [SWEET:realmSoil/Ground], as this is the fuel [CHEBI:33292] that is burnt in a ground fire [ENVO:01000786]. The density of the fuel bed, the plant litter accumulated on the ground. It is calculated as the ratio of the mass of the fuel bed to the fuel bed volume. This trait should be measured on plant litter from a single taxon.
comments	In wildland environments it will be difficult to measure this trait on an individual taxon and fuel bed will instead be a ‘community level’ trait. Therefore, this trait will generally be used to document fuel bed bulk density in experimental situations.
