The questions are; Are the traits possessed by juveniles (seed/seedlings) of an assemblage of twenty-five emergent macrophyte species independent of the traits possessed by adults of these species? What are the patterns of covariation among twenty morphological traits of these species of widely different taxonomy? Is there any predictable relationships between these traits and the environments in which the species occur?
Shipley et al. (Fri,) studied this question.
