Field transplant of two contrasting Senecio wildflower species across an elevational gradient on Mount Etna, Sicily 2017
This dataset contains survival, growth and leaf morphology data for multiple clones of c. 40 genotypes of two species of Senecio. The two Senecio species are native to low (S. chrysanthemifolius) and high elevations (S. aethnensis) on Mount Etna. Genotypes were propagated in a glasshouse and multiple clones of each genotype were then transplanted at four elevations (500m, 1000m, 1500m, 2000m) on Mount Etna in June-July 2017 before measurements were taken.

For the morphological measurements, leaves were scanned and the software Lamina used to generate the measurements. Survival was measured by checking for dead plants regularly and then calculating the total days that each plant survived following their initial transplant. To measure growth, in November (c. 4-5 months after the initial transplant) plant height was measured (in mm) using a ruler.
