ref_PLANTS

Contains species names without outhors which correspond to the ones in
PLANTS traitbase.

datasets

Plant ecologists often need to collect "traits" data
about plant species which are often scattered among various
databases: TR8 contains a set of tools which take care of
automatically retrieving some of those functional traits data
for plant species from publicly available databases (The Ecological Flora
of the British Isles, LEDA traitbase, Ellenberg
values for Italian Flora, Mycorrhizal intensity databases, BROT,
PLANTS, Jepson Flora Project).
The TR8 name, inspired by "car plates" jokes, was chosen since
it both reminds of the main object of the package and is
extremely short to type.
