Dataset_persistence-related traits_edaphic island plants

Dataset for Ottaviani et al. (2022) Sticking around: plant persistence strategies on edaphic islands. Diversity and Distribution. Persistence-related trait data for 13 plant species (5 clonal, 8 non-clonal) specialists of granite outcrop edaphic islands in the Czech Republic. Traits are: lateral spread, plant height, belowground organ dry matter content [BDMC], age, radial growth, storage tissue, vessel size. Biogeographic and environmental predictors measured at each of the 20 studied edaphic islands: target effect [TE], soil fertility [PC1_soil_nut], soil sandiness [Soil_arid], soil depth mean [SD_mean], soil depth CV [SD_cv], PC1_clim, PC2_clim.
