Data from: Multifaceted functional diversity for multifaceted crop yield: towards ecological assembly rules for varietal mixtures (Q6690650)

Data and code for the study Multifaceted functional diversity for multifaceted crop yield: towards ecological assembly rules for varietal mixtures Two data files are available: CWM_D.csv contains one row per experimental plot with community-weighted mean (CWM) and Rao quadratic diversity (D) indices computed on the 19 functional traits. The first two columns (genotype_1 genotype_2) are the identity of the two genotypes in the plot, which are identical in single-variety plots. The third column (assoc) refers to the plot type: single-variety (M) or mixed-variety (P) plot. Then, all trait CWMs and Ds are reported as CWM_trait_name and D_trait_name , respectively. For single-variety plots, only CWMs are reported but in this case they correspond to unweighted-averaged trait values across replicated measurements within plots. Root trait names are followed by sem or adv depending if they were measured on seminal or adventitious roots. Reported traits are: Angle_aer (Aerial angle, ), Angle_root (Root angle, ), Diam_sem/adv (mean root diameter, mm), SRL_sem/adv (specific root length, m/g), RTD_sem/adv (root tissue density, g/cm3), RBI_sem/adv (root branching intensity, nb of root tips/cm), RLD_sem/adv (root length density, cm root/cm3 soil), Till_nb (tiller number per capita), Ear_bio (early biomass per capita, g), SLA (specific leaf area, m/kg), LNC (leaf nitrogen content, %), Height (plant height, cm), Heading (heading date, Growing Degree Days), and Maturity (maturity date, Growing Degree Days). RAW_RYT.csv contains one row per experimental plot with absolute and relative measures of performance on several agronomic variables. The first two columns (genotype_1 genotype_2) are the identity of the two genotypes in the plot, which are identical in single-variety plots. The third column (assoc) refers to the plot type: single-variety (M) or mixed-variety (P) plot. Then, all absolute and relative measures of agronomic performance are reported as RAW_performance_variable_name and RYT_performance_variable_name, respectively. For single-variety plots, only absolute performances are reported. Reported performance variable are GY (Grain yield, g/m), GNb (Grain number per m), SY (Spike yield, g/m), SNb (Spike number per m), BY (Biomass yield, g/m), PY (Protein yield, g/m), TKW (Thousand kernel weight, g), SeY (Semolina yield, %), GPC (Grain protein content, %), TW (Test weight, kg/hL), RLVA (Rate of loss of vitreous aspect, %), YI (Yellowness index), GPD (Grain protein deviation, %). One R code file is available: Mu_FD_Mu_CY_Analysis.R contains all statistical analysis performed to produce the results presented in the main text and in the Supplementary Information of the study. It uses CWM_D.csv and RAW_RYT.csv files as inputs.
