Data from: Pre‐adaptation and adaptation shape trait‐environment matching in the Neotropics

<p>The resources provided here comprise raw and final data sets used in our study 'Preadaptation and adaptation shape trait-environment matching in the Neotropics'<span> (DOI: 10.1111/geb</span>.<span>13730) comprising curated g</span>eographic occurrences for 156 Swartzia taxa across its distribution in the Neotropics, phylogenetic information for 69 Swartzia taxa, and corresponding climatic (i.e. 19 climatic variables taken from WorldClim), soil (<span>i.e. </span>sand, nitrogen, and clay content taken from the SoilGrids 2.0 portal), and trait data <span>for each taxa</span> (i.e. <span>trait measurements for </span>lefleats, petals, and fruits)<span>. We also provide t</span>he script used to extract trait information from botanical monographs<span>.</span></p>
