The aim of this research were (i) identify the main trade-off and covariations of a group of leaf traits related to carbon assimilation, and (ii) assess the irradiance-elicited plasticity, and test whether this plasticity differs among species of tropical rain forest. Measurements were made with saplings from 13 species growing under three levels of irradiance, provided by shading nets, in an open green-house. A cost benefit analysis was undertaken to quantify carbon balance of leaves metamers. Construction costs of metamers (CCmetm), payback time of the investment of carbon into leaf and metamer structure (PBT), and leaf life span (LLS) were recorded on the saplings. A large inter-specific diversity was recorded for all the traits, the spe...
