Interspecific variation in bulk tissue, fatty acid and monosaccharide δ13C values of leaves from a mesotrophic grassland plant community

δ13C values were determined for methyl esters of fatty acids C16:0, C18:2 and C18:3, and alditol acetates of monosaccharides glucose, xylose, arabinose, galactose and mannose, from tree, shrub, herb and grass leaves of a mesotrophic grassland plant community, using GC-C-IRMS.
