Greenhouse Common Garden Experiment Leaves

Plant number indicates the plant identification number during the experiment on plant species Achyranthes japonica. Soil Source identifies which population location the soil was sourced from for the experiment. Soil sources used in this experiment include: Warfield, Kentucky; Henderson, Kentucky; and Chestnut Hills Nature Preserve, Illinois. Seed source identifies which population the seeds were collected and sourced. Seeds were sourced from locations Chestnut Hills, Illinois; Limekiln Springs, Illinois; Cypress Creek, Illinois; Louisville, Kentucky; and Warfield, Kentucky. Rep identifies which Repetition the plant received during experiment which also indicated what experimental block the plants were grown on. Time 1 through Time 10 indicated sampling points where the number of leaves per plant data was collected. Time 1 through Time 10 are the number of leaves per plant at that time point. The time that elapsed between time points is roughly every two weeks.

本实验以日本牛膝（Achyranthes japonica）为研究对象，其中植株编号（Plant number）用于标识实验过程中的每一株植株。土壤来源（Soil Source）用于指明实验所用土壤的种群采集地点，本实验采用的土壤来源包括：肯塔基州沃菲尔德（Warfield, Kentucky）、肯塔基州亨德森（Henderson, Kentucky）以及伊利诺伊州栗山自然保护区（Chestnut Hills Nature Preserve, Illinois）。种子来源（Seed source）用于指明实验所用种子的采集种群地点，本实验的种子来源包括：伊利诺伊州栗山（Chestnut Hills, Illinois）、伊利诺伊州石灰窑泉（Limekiln Springs, Illinois）、伊利诺伊州赛普拉斯溪（Cypress Creek, Illinois）、肯塔基州路易斯维尔（Louisville, Kentucky）以及肯塔基州沃菲尔德（Warfield, Kentucky）。重复标识（Rep）用于标注实验中植株的重复组别，同时也代表植株种植所在的实验区组。采样时间点1至10（Time 1至Time 10）为预设数据采集节点，每个节点均记录对应时刻单株植株的叶片数量，相邻采样点的时间间隔约为两周。
