TRY-Plant Trait Database

Plant traits – morphological, anatomical, biochemical, physiological or phenological features of individuals or their component organs or tissues – are a key to understanding and predicting the adaptation of ecosystems in the face of biodiversity loss and global change. To improve the empirical data basis for such projections, in 2007 the TRY project was initiated, aimed at bringing together the different plant trait databases worldwide. In this context TRY is not an acronym, rather a statement of sentiment. Since 2007 the TRY database has accomplished an unprecedented coverage. It contains 3 million trait records for 750 traits of 1 million individual plants, representing 69,000 plant species. About halve of the data are geo-referenced, providing a global coverage of more than 8000 measurement sites.Data sharing in the context of the TRY initiative is organized by commonly agreed intellectual property guidelines. Based on these guidelines the TRY initiative has integrated about 120 datasets, including original datasets of unpublished and published data, but also collective databases like LEDA,GlopNet, BiolFlor, SID, EcoFlora and many others, which have already combined several original datasets.


In the context of the TRY database the trait values are standardized, quality checked and made available for scientific projects upon request. As the TRY database contains published and unpublished data and because the database contains a large range of additional information for each individual trait value, only a minor part of the data can be provided for direct download. However, so far we have received more than 100 proposals requesting data from the TRY database and first articles are being published. Five years after initiation it now looks like TRY is becoming more than ‘just a try’.
