Data containing seed germination, seedling emergence, seedling establishment, and seedling recruitment of eight Ficus species (four hemiepiphytic and four non-hemiepiphytic species) from Subtropics of Southern China

Data from Castillo-Diaz et al. 2021 contains seed germination,
seedling emergence, seedling establishment and seedling recruitment of eight Ficus species (four hemiepiphytic species and four
non-hemiepiphytic species). Fresh mature syconia (i.e., fruits) were randomly collected from a minimum of five trees for each species in Yunnan
and Guangxi provinces during 2018 and 2019. Seeds were submitted experimentally to
environmental field conditions such as canopy light
availability (gap versus non-gap), soil temperature, soil moisture and soil pH along an elevation gradient spanning from 400 m. a.s.l to 1850 m. a.s.l. in four subtropical forests in southern China.
