One Excel spreadsheet file, including one cover page with citation information and data use conditions, and two data sheets:
* belowground (root) data
* aboveground (leaf and stem) data.
Headings describe the data and report the units.
Details on the water and nutrient treatments are presented in the related publication.
The pot experiment was designed to assess the effects of watering frequency (twice a week vs. once a week for set total water volume), nutrient availability (low vs. high fertilization), and plant diversity level (monoculture vs. mixture of the two species).
The data was collected in a pot experiment in a full factorial design with six replicate pots per treatment (each planted with six cuttings). Biomass was measured by weighing roots, stems, and leaves after drying. Nitrogen contents were measured in an external laboratory. Specific leaf area was estimated by weighing and scanning leaves. All data are presented on a pot basis (summed biomass or average nitrogen contents and specific leaf area).
Meteorological and soil moisture data, as well as additional plant morphological data are described in the related publication and available upon request.
