Data from: How do lianas and vines influence competitive differences and niche differences among tree species? Concepts and a case study in a tropical forest

BCI tree species input dataData for 33 focal tree species on Barro Colorado Island on the proportions of trees with different liana cover levels, the estimated per capita population growth rates under different liana cover levels, and shade-tolerance indices. These data are an input file for the R code "bcispeciescalcs.r"BCIspeciesinputdata.csvR code to calculate species-level liana-tree interaction statisticsRequires species-level data on the proportions of trees in different liana cover classes, and the estimated per capita population growth rates for different liana cover classes (file BCIspeciesinputdata.csv) and data on bootstrapped sets of estimated per capita population growth rates ("BootstrappedLambdas.csv")bci_speciescalcs.RR code for conducting statistical tests presented in articleThis code calculates correlation coefficients related to figures 3, 4, 5, S3, and S5, as well as the analyses for figure S2, figure S4 and, Table S2. It requires as input the species-level liana interaction statistics file "treespstatsrelianas.csv" and the bootstrapped iterations of the key statistics "bootstraplianastats.rds" that are the output of running "bci_speciescalcs.r". See comments in the code for additional information.bci_analyses.RBootstrapped per capita population growth rates of BCI tree speciesThese are sets of bootstrapped eigenvalues generated by Visser et al. 2018 J. Ecology 106:781-794. Each row is one bootstrapped iteration. Column names denote the liana cover (l0 is liana cover 0, l1 is liana cover class 1, etc.) combined with the 6-letter species code. Note the eigenvalues are correlated across species and liana covers. These data are required by the R code "bci_speciescalcs.r"BootstrappedLambdas.csvBCI tree species statistics on tree-liana interactionsSummary statistics including confidence intervals on statistics of tree-liana interaction for the focal 33 tree species from BCI (Barro Colorado Island). This file is generated by running "bci_speciescalcs.r"treespstatsrelianas.csvLiterature data on proportion of trees infested with lianas by tree speciesStudy is a short reference to the publication; the full citations and additional information for each study are given in "litreviewsiteinfo.csv". Genus, species, and family (when available) are the taxonomic names. n is the number of trees included. prevalence is the proportion of trees infested with lianas. load is the mean proportion of the crown infested, among infested trees (see readme)litreviewalldata.csvLiterature review references and site informationInformation on country, study site, forest type, years of data collection, tree size class, data source within the publication, corresponding author name and email, and full reference for all studies included in the literature review.litreviewsiteinfo.csv
