Raw data files associated with Mahmud et al. 2018

This folder consists of existing dataset from the container volume experiment which was carried out at the Hawkesbury Forest Experiment site (33°37'S 150°44'E) in Richmond, NSW, Australia. The site and experimental setup have been explained in detail by Campany et al. (2017). This dataset is compiled from another data source of Campany C. (2017) which can be found in this link: http://doi.org/10.4225/35/58b4eaa87c64d.<br>In brief, 20 weeks old Eucalyptus tereticornis seedlings in tube stock were chosen from a single local Cumberland plain cohort. Ten additional seedlings of similar age and growth were harvested to measure initial leaf area and dry mass of leaves, stems and roots. A total of 49 Eucalyptus tereticornis seedlings were grown in a range of container sizes (5 L to 35 L) in field conditions, using freely-rooted seedlings as a control for the container size treatments, with the goal to examine how the C balance of the plants are affected to belowground sink limitations. Six container sizes were used with each container experiment had a complete replicate set of six container volumes along with a free seedling. Similar notations are used here as Campany et al. (2017) for the treatments in different pots as 5 L, 10 L, 15 L, 20 L, 25 L and 35 L in respect of their pot sizes. The experiment tracked leaf-level gas exchange, leaf carbohydrate accumulation and seedling allometry over the course of 4 months for all 7 treatments. p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 9.5px Helvetica; color: #023aeb} span.s1 {color: #000000}
