| Summary: | The climbing plants in India are listed in detail in this data note. This comprehensive list of climbers was compiled using more than 100 published and unpublished sources that span more than a century. It includes a total of 2,608 species representing 585 genera and 104 spermatophyte plant families. Each species listed in the dataset is categorised according to its degree of woodiness and climbing strategies. The dataset also includes information on The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) status of all climber species from India. The botanical nomenclature used in the data has been updated to reflect Angiosperm Phylogeny Group (APG) IV classification. Researchers who are conducting ecological, taxonomic, phylogenetic, and evolutionary studies on climbers will be particularly interested in this dataset.
