locality of sampling.
Table 1. Results of the standardized major axis of the relationships
between turgor loss point (πtlp, MPa, n = 122) and leaf
dry matter content (‘LDMC’, mg g–1, n = 122),
specific leaf area (‘SLA’, m2 kg–1,
n = 122), intrinsic water use efficiency measured by carbon stable
isotopes (‘δ13C’, n = 57) and vegetative height
(log10-transformed; ‘Height’, n = 122) in models (a)
with only traits, (b) with traits and plant functional types (‘PFTs’),
and (c) based on data after accounting for phylogenetic independent
contrasts. In (b) ‘LR’ denotes the Bartlett-corrected likelihood ratio
for slopes comparison between the PFTs under the null hypothesis that
slopes are equal. Significant relations are highlighted in bold.
