Tree species of the cerrado vegetation show several degrees of leaf deciduousness such as the deciduous, semi deciduous and evergreen. However, it is not clear if these groups are functional groups. The main objective of this dissertation was to identify sets of characteristics and their compromises in each leaf phenological group that could identify functional groups since the early years of development. By identifying interrelationships of traits, it was possible to established syndromes that could characterize functional groups. We used canopy and root architecture as well as biomass partitioning as sets of traits to identify functional groups. Deciduous showed a relatively more vigorous root system, reaching greater depths, and ...
