Ecology data from 4 leafless vanilla populations

To ensure robustness, three similar plots were established at each site. The sampling encompassed all trees and shrubs with a diameter at breast height (dbh) exceeding 5 cm.

Pertinent information regarding each specimen, such as diameter at breast height, maximum height, and local vernacular name, was meticulously recorded. Comprehensive documentation included the total count of trees and phorophytes within each plot. Furthermore, specific attention was given to recording the number of vanilla individuals growing on each phorophyte.
