Plant growthform lookup table

Description

Lookup table for plant growth form

Usage

growth_form(version = NULL)

growth_form_versions(local = TRUE)

growth_form_version_current_local(local = TRUE)

growth_form_version_current_github(local = FALSE)

get_most_recent_growth_form()

growth_form_del(version)

Arguments

version	Version number. The default will load the most recent version on your computer or the most recent version known to the package if you have never downloaded the data before. With growth_form_del, specifying version=NULL will delete all data sets.
local	Type of version to return: options are "local" (versions installed locally) or "github" (versions available on github). With any luck, "github" is a superset of "local". For growth_form_version_current, if "local" is given, but there are no local versions, then we do check for the most recent github version.
