Comparing experimental and field-measured traits and their variability in Central European grassland species
Original language description
Most variation in the experiment-measured trait data was explained by interspecific differences, except for leaf greenness (where species explained less than 50% of the variance), and the treatments had little effect on close associations of trait means. Species rankings based on SLA and LDMC, but not plant height, were stable across garden and field measurements. Though garden and field-measured ITV were positively associated with each other, the associations were not significant. Our study indicates that species can be stably ranked based on SLA and LDMC means across different datasets (experimental and field-based). To what extent species vary in their functional traits under field conditions can be, however, less well predicted from experimentally measured ITV. Garden-measured differences in ITV should be thus used with caution when associated with species' performance and distribution patterns explored in the field.
