The idea that the remarkable diversity of plant life on Earth is underpinned by general, simple, recurrent patterns of specialization has a long tradition in ecology. However, until recently it was not possible to test for them at the global scale. Here we present the first quantitative picture of essential functional diversity of vascular plants, based on functional trait theory and enabled by the worldwide communal database of plant traits, TRY. The analysis is based on information on six traits: plant height, stem specific density, leaf mass per area, leaf nutrient content, leaf size and propagule size. These traits capture essential aspects of the Darwinian struggle for existence, and at the same time are available for thousands of vascular plants worldwide. Fil: Díaz, Sandra.
