- Label: Plant vegetative response to disturbances other than fire
- Entity URI: https://w3id.org/APD/traits/trait_0030615
- Type: categorical
- Definition: A whole plant [PO:0000003] life history [ECOCORE:00000018] trait which is the ability [NCIT:C78209] of individual [EFO:0000542] plants to regenerate [GO:0031099] vegetatively (resprout [Cerrado:fire#PlantResprout]) from meristematic tissue [PO:0006079], buds [PO:0000055]) after a disturbance event [EnvThes:20373] other than a fire [ENVO:01000786] that causes 100% defoliation.;A plant's ability to regenerate vegetatively (resprout) from a disturbance other than fire that causes 100% defoliation.
- Additional comments: This trait explicitly refers to a plant's vegetative regeneration ability following a disturbance event other than fire. See other `resprouting_capacity` traits, `bud_bank_location`, and `clonal_spread_mechanism` for other information about a plant's ability to resprout. Just as post-fire resprouting capacity is documented in individuals that have suffered 100% leaf scorch, this trait should be scored only on individuals that have suffered 100% leaf loss. If a different leaf loss percentage is used, this needs to be documented as a context property.
- Allowed values:
value description resprouts_after_cyclone Plants are able to resprout following 100% leaf loss in a cyclone. resprouts_after_drought Plants are able to resprout following 100% leaf loss during a drought. resprouts_non_fire_disturbance Plants that are known to be fire-killed, but have the ability to resprout following a disturbance other than fire that causes 100% leaf loss.
