摘要

植物性状捕捉了生态策略的显著多样性，然而将这种复杂性合成连贯的框架仍然具有挑战性。性状空间显著地推进了这一努力，将众多性状提炼成有意义的生态维度。最近的框架整合了地上和地下的特征，但其他方面——如繁殖、物候、水力学和菌根关联——仍然缺乏代表性，面临概念和方法上的障碍。解决这些问题需要解决性状数据库中的偏差，标准化方法，以及整合复杂或分类的性状。在这篇综述中，我们建议建立一个灵活、模块化和可扩展的完全统一的性状空间，这将极大地增强全球比较，提高我们对全球变化的植物生态响应的预测能力，并最终加强生物多样性的监测和管理。

The path toward a unified trait space: synthesizing plant functional diversity.

Plant traits capture the remarkable diversity of ecological strategies, yet synthesizing this complexity into coherent frameworks remains challenging. Trait spaces have significantly advanced this effort, distilling numerous traits into meaningful ecological dimensions. Recent frameworks integrate above- and belowground characteristics, but other dimensions - such as reproduction, phenology, hydraulics, and mycorrhizal associations - remain poorly represented, facing conceptual and methodological hurdles. Resolving these issues requires addressing biases in trait databases, standardizing methodologies, and integrating complex or categorical traits. In this review, we propose the development of a fully unified trait space that is flexible, modular, and scalable, which would greatly enhance global comparisons, improve our predictive capabilities of plant ecological responses to global change, and ultimately strengthen biodiversity monitoring and management.

期刊介绍： New Phytologist is an international electronic journal published 24 times a year. It is owned by the New Phytologist Foundation, a non-profit-making charitable organization dedicated to promoting plant science. The journal publishes excellent, novel, rigorous, and timely research and scholarship in plant science and its applications. The articles cover topics in five sections: Physiology & Development, Environment, Interaction, Evolution, and Transformative Plant Biotechnology. These sections encompass intracellular processes, global environmental change, and encourage cross-disciplinary approaches. The journal recognizes the use of techniques from molecular and cell biology, functional genomics, modeling, and system-based approaches in plant science. Abstracting and Indexing Information for New Phytologist includes Academic Search, AgBiotech News & Information, Agroforestry Abstracts, Biochemistry & Biophysics Citation Index, Botanical Pesticides, CAB Abstracts®, Environment Index, Global Health, and Plant Breeding Abstracts, and others.
