1. 一个国际科学家小组建立了西北欧洲植物区系生活史性状的开放互联网数据库（LEDA-Traitbase），可作为植物生物多样性与共存、宏观生态模式和植物功能反应等基础研究的数据源。2.物种性状矩阵包含编辑委员会控制下的参考信息，大约为。结合现有信息和附加测量结果，包含 3000 种西北欧植物群。该数据库目前包含 26 种植物性状的数据，描述了植物动态的三个关键特征：持久性、再生性和扩散性。 LEDA-Traitbase 可在 www.leda-traitbase.org.3 免费获取。我们介绍了数据库的结构和可用特征信息的概述。4．合成。 LEDA Traitbase 可用于大规模分析群落对环境变化的功能反应、群落性状组成对生态系统特性的影响以及稀有性和入侵性模式，以及作为植物基本权衡表达的性状之间的联系。
1. An international group of scientists has built an open internet data base of life-history traits of the Northwest European flora (the LEDA-Traitbase) that can be used as a data source for fundamental research on plant biodiversity and coexistence, macro-ecological patterns and plant functional responses.2. The species-trait matrix comprises referenced information under the control of an editorial board, for ca. 3000 species of the Northwest European flora, combining existing information and additional measurements. The data base currently contains data on 26 plant traits that describe three key features of plant dynamics: persistence, regeneration and dispersal. The LEDA-Traitbase is freely available at www.leda-traitbase.org.3. We present the structure of the data base and an overview of the trait information available.4. Synthesis. The LEDA Traitbase is useful for large-scale analyses of functional responses of communities to environmental change, effects of community trait composition on ecosystem properties and patterns of rarity and invasiveness, as well as linkages between traits as expressions of fundamental trade-offs in plants.
