Jaquetti et al. 2023 Ecophysiological responses of tree legumes to seasonality and fertilization

The data presented for Photosynthesis, transpiration, stomatal resistance, dark respiration, intrinsic water use efficiency and water use efficiency, mid-day leaf water potential, leaf area, nutrients concentrations and nutrient use efficiencies, nonstructural carbohydrates, photosynthetic pigments and chlorophyll fluorescence were collected in the dry and rainy seasons. The experimental design consisted of 12 treatments were a combination of six tree legumes species under fertilization vs. unfertilized plants. The dataset presents individual values for the six studied Fabaceae species <em>Cenostigma tocantinum</em> Ducke, <em>Senna reticulata</em> (Willd.) H.S. Irwin &amp; Barneby, <em>Dipteryx odorata</em> (Aubl.) Willd., <em>Clitoria fairchildiana</em> R.A. Howard., <em>Inga edulis</em> Mart., <em>Acacia</em> spp.. Data was collected in a degraded area of the Balbina Hydropower Dam Forest Restoration Program (1 ̊55’36”S, 59 ̊27’10”W) in Amazonas state, Brazil. The forest restoration experiment evaluated the effects of fertilization and seasonality on ecophysiological characteristics through multivariate analysis. <br> The datasets from <br> Jaquetti RK (2020) Growth, biomass allocation, carbohydrate concentrations, nutrient concentrations, soil data and precipitation data Jaquetti and Gonçalves 2021.
