Plant trait variation drives plant function, community composition and ecosystem processes.
However, our current understanding of trait variation disproportionately relies on …

An earlier version of V. PhyloMaker has been broadly used to generate phylogenetic trees of
vascular plants for botanical, biogeographical and ecological studies. Here, we update and …

Plant traits determine how individual plants cope with heterogeneous environments. Despite
large variability in individual traits, trait coordination and trade-offs, result in some trait …

Understanding how species' thermal limits have evolved across the tree of life is central to
predicting species' responses to climate change. Here, using experimentally-derived …

Plant economics run on carbon and nutrients instead of money. Leaf strategies
aboveground span an economic spectrum from “live fast and die young” to “slow and …

We present V. PhyloMaker, a freely available package for R designed to generate
phylogenies for vascular plants. The mega‐tree implemented in V. PhyloMaker (ie GBOTB …

Forests constitute important ecosystems in the global carbon cycle. However, how trees and
environmental conditions interact to determine the amount of organic carbon stored in forest …

Species occurrence records from online databases are an indispensable resource in
ecological, biogeographical and palaeontological research. However, issues with data …

Angiosperms are by far the most species-rich clade of land plants, but their origin and early
evolutionary history remain poorly understood. We reconstructed angiosperm phylogeny …
