There are several classification types for plants according to functional traits such as adaptive and demographic strategies (Grime 1974, Tilman 1988, Westoby 1998) and these are sometimes labelled as plant-ecologystrategy schemes (Decocq and Hermy 2008, Kılınç etal. 2010). Grime (1977) defined plant strategy as a grouping of similar or analogous genetic
characteristics recurring widely among species or populations, which leads to similarities in ecology.
