Data for: Relationships between population traits, non-structural carbohydrates and elevation in alpine stands of Vaccinium myrtillus L.

The data-set is used in the publication entitled: 'Relationships between population traits, non-structural carbohydrates and elevation in alpine stands of Vaccinium myrtillus L.' published in American Journal of Botany (AJB). The research hypothesis, sampling design, methods, analysis, results and interpretation of results are described in the published paper. The data-set include sample sites environmental data, growth traits of Vaccinium myrtillus (bilberry) stands and Non-structural carbohydrates measured in stems of Vaccinium myrtillus.本数据集应用于发表于《美国植物学杂志》（American Journal of Botany，简称AJB）的题为《越橘（Vaccinium myrtillus L.）高山林分的种群性状、非结构性碳水化合物与海拔的相关性》的研究论文。该研究的研究假设、采样设计、实验方法、数据分析、研究结果及结果阐释均已在已发表的论文中详细阐述。 本数据集涵盖采样点环境数据、越橘林分的生长性状，以及从越橘茎秆中测得的非结构性碳水化合物（non-structural carbohydrates）含量数据。
