Mean values of 11 functional traits of seven genera in white-water and black-water forests.

The columns indicate trait mean values per genus: leaf area (LA), specific leaf area (SLA), leaf dry matter content (LDMC), leaf nitrogen (N), leaf phosphorus (P), leaf potassium (K), leaf calcium (Ca), branch-wood density (BWD), lenticel density (LD), height:diameter ratio (HDR). Trait mean values are based on 5 individuals per genera and coefficient of variation (CV) is based on all 33 species per forest type (see Table 2 for trait units).
