From: Aboveground and belowground trait coordination across twelve boreal forest tree species
Variance decomposition for each trait across all tree species. Bars are the total trait variation for each plant trait. The sub-bars shows the percentage of the total variation for each trait explained by species (purple), site (blue), variation between blocks within a site (peach) and residual variation (green). The fourteen plant traits are root carbon content (Root C); leaf carbon content (Leaf C); root carbon to nitrogen ratio (Root C: N); leaf carbon to nitrogen ratio (Leaf C: N); root nitrogen content (Root N); leaf nitrogen content (Leaf N); average fine root diameter (AD); specific leaf area (SLA); specific root length (SRL); specific root area (SRA); leaf dry matter content (LDMC), and root dry matter content (RDMC).
