Taxonomic Backbone - sPlot 3.0
Francesco Maria Sabatini
13 March, 2020
Abstract
This document describes the workflow (with contributions from Oliver Purschke, Jürgen Dengler and Florian Jansen) that was used to generate the taxonomic backbone that standardizes taxon names across the (i) global vegetation plot database sPlot version 3.0 and (ii) the global plant trait data base TRY version 5.
Timestamp: Fri Mar 13 15:01:06 2020
Drafted: Francesco Maria Sabatini
Revised: Helge Bruelheide, Borja Jimenez-Alfaro
Version: 1.3
Changes to Version 1.1 Additional manual cleaning of species names from BJA, UJ and HB.
Changes to Version 1.2 Changed order of ranking TNRS databases, when a name is matched across more than 1 DB; Using cleaned version of DT table (after stripping non-closed quotation marks). Additionally check with TPL those species that, even if resolved in TNRS, did not return an accepted name. Changes to Version 1.3 Manual check of names BEFORE matching with TNRS
1 Data preparation
1.1 Load packages
library(reshape2)
library(tidyverse)
library(readr)
library(data.table)
library(knitr)
library(kableExtra)
library(stringr)
library(taxize)
library(Taxonstand)
library(vegdata)1.2 Read in taxon names from sPlot and TRY
#import and save splot names from DT table
DT0 <- readr::read_delim("../sPlot_data_export/sPlot_3_0_2_species_test.csv",
delim="\t",
col_type = cols(
PlotObservationID = col_double(),
Taxonomy = col_character(),
`Taxon group` = col_character(),
`Taxon group ID` = col_double(),
`Turboveg2 concept` = col_character(),
`Matched concept` = col_character(),
Match = col_double(),
Layer = col_double(),
`Cover %` = col_double(),
`Cover code` = col_character(),
x_ = col_double()
)
) 1.3 Import lists of species classified into groups
These objects are defined in the appendix
load("../_derived/taxa_manual.RData")splot.species <- DT0 %>%
rename(Species.original=`Turboveg2 concept`, Matched.concept=`Matched concept`) %>%
filter(`Taxon group`!="Mushroom") %>%
dplyr::select(Species.original, Matched.concept) %>%
distinct() %>%
group_by(Matched.concept) %>%
mutate(fungi= word(Matched.concept, 1) %in% mushroom) %>%
ungroup() %>%
filter(fungi==F) %>%
dplyr::select(Species.original, Matched.concept)
write_csv(splot.species, path = "../_derived/splot3.0.2.species.csv")!!! I used the column from TRY with the full species name, not the column with only two-word name strings
splot.species <- read_csv("../_derived/splot3.0.2.species.csv")
try.species <- readr::read_csv("../_input/AccSpecies_TRY5.csv", col_names = F, locale = locale(encoding = 'Latin1')) %>%
dplyr::select(-X6, -X7) %>%
rename(try.ID=X1, FullSpecies=X2, Species=X3, Genus=X4, Family=X5, GrowthForm=X8)
# Sneak in species from the Alpine database (Borja & Riccardo), as a courtesy to Project #18
alpine.species <- read_delim("../_input/new_alpine_species.txt", col_names = F, delim = "\t", locale = locale(encoding = 'Latin1')) %>%
rename(Species=X1)Use the Matched.concept column, as it already contains some standardization by Stephan Hennekkens according to synbiosys.
sPlot 3.0.1 contains 107473 different species names.
TRY 5. contains 302729.
I add to this a list of 2961 alpine species delivered from Riccardo Testolin, within sPlot Project #18.
1.4 Combine species lists
spec.list.TRY.sPlot <- splot.species %>%
dplyr::select(Matched.concept) %>%
rename(Species=Matched.concept) %>%
mutate(Source="S") %>%
bind_rows(try.species %>%
dplyr::select(FullSpecies) %>% ##using the full name from TRY
rename(Species=FullSpecies) %>%
mutate(Source="T")) %>%
bind_rows(alpine.species %>%
mutate(Source="A")) %>%
reshape2::dcast(Species ~ Source) %>%
mutate(A=ifelse(A>=1, "A", "")) %>%
mutate(S=ifelse(S>=1, "S", "")) %>%
mutate(T=ifelse(T>=1, "T", "")) %>%
mutate(Source=paste(S, T, A, sep="")) %>%
dplyr::select(-A, -S, -T)
#Number of species unique and in common across databasesThe total number of species in the backbone is 346438.
| Source | Num.taxa |
|---|---|
| sPlot only | 43716 |
| TRY only | 238137 |
| Alpine only | 365 |
| sPlot + TRY | 61624 |
| sPlot + Alpine | 423 |
| TRY + Alpine | 463 |
| sPlot + TRY + Alpine | 1710 |
1.5 A-priori cleaning of names
Stripping unwanted characters as well as abbreviation (such as hybrid markers) which would prevent name matching:
#Ancillary function to change to lower case
firstup <- function(x) {
substr(x, 1, 1) <- toupper(substr(x, 1, 1))
x
}
spec.list.TRY.sPlot <- spec.list.TRY.sPlot %>%
mutate(OriginalNames=Species) %>%
mutate(Species=tolower(Species)) %>%
mutate(Species=firstup(Species)) %>%
dplyr::select(OriginalNames, Species, Source) %>%
mutate(Species=gsub('*', '', Species, fixed=TRUE)) %>%
mutate(Species=gsub('cf. ', '', Species, fixed=TRUE)) %>%
mutate(Species=gsub('Cf. ', '', Species, fixed=TRUE)) %>%
mutate(Species=gsub('[', '', Species, fixed=TRUE)) %>%

mutate(Species=gsub('×', '', Species, fixed=TRUE)) %>%
mutate(Species=gsub('like ', '', Species, fixed=TRUE)) %>%
mutate(Species=gsub(',', '', Species, fixed=TRUE)) %>%
mutate(Species=gsub('#', '', Species, fixed=TRUE)) %>%
mutate(Species=gsub('_', ' ', Species))For all names, that have a number in their first word, and consist of \(>\) 1 words, remove that word:
spec.list.TRY.sPlot <- spec.list.TRY.sPlot %>%
mutate(firstWordWithNumbers=grepl('[0-9]', word(Species, 1))) %>%
mutate(numberOfWords= sapply(gregexpr("\\W+", Species), length) + 1) %>%
mutate(Species=ifelse((firstWordWithNumbers & numberOfWords > 1),
sapply(Species,
function(x) substr(x, start=regexpr(pattern =' ', text=x)+1,
stop=nchar(x))), Species))Correct some name abbreviations using taxname.abbr in vegdata:
spec.list.TRY.sPlot <- spec.list.TRY.sPlot %>%
mutate(Species=taxname.abbr(spec.list.TRY.sPlot$Species)) %>%
dplyr::select(OriginalNames, Species, Source) %>%

2 Match names against Taxonomic Name Resolution Service (TNRS)
Export species name list
write_csv(spec.list.TRY.sPlot %>% dplyr::select(Species) %>% distinct() ,
path = "../_derived/TNRS_submit/tnrs_submit_iter1.csv")The csv-file of species names was submitted to Taxonomic Name Resolution Service web application (Boyle et al. 2013, iPlant Collaborative (2015). TNRS version 4.0 was used, which became available in August 2015 (this version also included The Plant List version 1.1). TNRS was queried on 24/02/2020.
2.1 TNRS settings
The following settings were used for resolving names on TNRS.
2.1.1 Sources for name resolution
The initial TNRS name resolution run was based on the five standard sources that were ranked according to preference in the following order (default of TNRS):
2.1.2 Family Classification
Resolved names were assigned to families based on the APGIII classification [@Chase2009], the same classification system used by Tropicos.
2.1.3 Retrieve results
Once the matching process was finished, results were retrieved from TNRS using the Detailed Download option that included the full name information (parsed components, warnings, links to sources, etc.). We retrieved all the matches for each species, constrained by source (TNRS default), where the name in the first source was selected as best match, unless there was no suitable match found in that source, the match from the next lower-ranked source was selected, until all resources where exhausted.
2.1.4 General procedure
Manually inspect the TNRS-results table in a spreadsheat application (i.e. LibreOffice or Excel). Starting with the highest taxonomic rank considered (i.e. Family). For instance, if manual checking of the TRNS output reveals that all accepted names or synonyms that have accuracy scores >0.9 are correct taxon names, use the following selection procedure:
- Name_matched_rank (==Family)
- Taxonomic_status (==Accepted, Synomyn)
- Family_score (>0.9)
Continue this selection procedure for entries that were matched at lower taxonomic ranks, i.e. genus, species, etc..
2.2 Iteration 1 - Read and combine TNRS result files
Read the files downloaded from TNRS into R.
tnrs.res0 <- readr::read_delim("../_derived/TNRS_submit/tnrs_results_iter1.txt", delim="\t", locale = locale(encoding = 'UTF-8'),quote="",

Genus_score = col_double(),
Specific_epithet_score = col_double(),
Infraspecific_epithet_score = col_double(),
Infraspecific_epithet_2_score = col_double(),
Selected = col_logical()
))2.2.1 Select best match for each submitted name
Best matches are selected in successive steps, depending at which taxonomic level each record was matched. Records were sorted based on decreasing match scores. Matches at low taxonomic level (variety, subspecies) were favoured over matches at high taxonomic levels (family, sections). When having exactly the same ranks, the records were ranked based on their source, as explained above.
For each name submitted, only the record having the highest rank was retained.
