Co-Vitas project traits data. The Co-VITAS project is investigating understory species (6 ubiquitous boreal species) response and adaptive capacity to environmental change, by measuring a set of leaf and root traits throughout the species range. We enlisted and coordinated the efforts of 23...

The National Tree Seed Centre (NTSC) is Canada’s only active national germplasm bank dedicated to conserving forest reproductive material (FRM), such as seeds, pollen, and somatic embryos. The NTSC was established in 1967 with a focus on obtaining, testing, storing, and providing native and...

Foliar traits measured in one study were used to develop an applied model to help restoration practitioners select an ideal mix of species to plant to achieve their restoration goals. We used trait-function relationships to characterize the effects of species on ecosystem functions. The dataset...
