• Entity URI: https://w3id.org/APD/traits/trait_0012221
• Type: numeric
• Definition: A reproductive shoot system [PO:0025082] biomass allocation [EnvThes:21360] trait which is one minus the ratio [PATO:0001470] of total plant seed [PO:0009010] dry [PATO:0001824] mass [PATO:0000125] to total plant reproductive shoot system tissue dry mass where reproductive tissues include all flower buds [PO:0000056], flowers [PO:0009046], fruits [PO:0009001], dispersal [EnvThes:21038] tissues, and seeds produced during the developmental process involved in reproduction [GO:0003006].;The fraction of total reproductive investment required to mature a seed that is invested in non-seed tissues. It is calculated as one minus, the ratio of total biomass investment in seeds to total biomass investment in all reproductive tissues, including flower buds, flowers, fruits, dispersal tissues, aborted seeds, and successfully matured seeds.
