Zdeňka Lososová et al., « Seed dispersal distance classes and dispersal modes for the European flora », Serveur académique Lausannois, ID : 10.1111/geb.13712
Motivation Although dispersal ability is one of the key features determining the spatial dynamics of plant populations and the structure of plant communities, it is also one of the traits for which we still lack data for most species. We compiled a comprehensive dataset of seed dispersal distance classes and predominant dispersal modes for most European vascular plants. Our Seed Dispersal Dataset can be used in functional biogeography, dynamic vegetation modelling and ecological studies at local to continental scales. Main types of variables contained Species were classified into seven ordered classes with similar dispersal distances estimated based on the predominant dispersal mode, morphology of dispersal units (diaspores or propagules), life form, plant height, seed mass, habitat, and known dispersal by humans. We evaluated our results by comparing them with dispersal distances calculated using the ‘dispeRsal’ function in R. Spatial location Europe. Time period Present. Major taxa and level of measurement The Seed Dispersal Dataset contains information on dispersal distance classes and the predominant dispersal mode for 10,327 most frequent and locally dominant European vascular plant species. Software format Data are available in .csv format.
