Functional Traits of Fleshy-fruit plants along a Tropical Gradient

Taxonomy and functional traits of 392 fleshy-fruited plant species from the Manu National Park in south-east Peru. Given are fruit length and width (mm), plant height (m) and crop mass (g). Fruit traits have been measured on fresh fruit samples. Number of fruits per plant (used to determine the crop mass) and plant height have been estimated in the field. Species names are indicated as row names.
