## **Required fields**:  1. For yields uploads, the only required field is a `yield` column.  2. For trait uploads, there must be at least one column whose label exactly matches the variable name for the trait value being specified. (Leading and trailing spaces are permitted, but letter case must exactly match the name of the variable specified in the database.)  ## Information that may be specified globally for the entire dataset.  1. Citation  * If only one citation for the entire dataset exists, this it  may be specified interactively by choosing a citation on the citations page instead of including citation information in the CSV file.  * otherwise, Otherwise,  specify the citation  in the CSV table using either (doi) or (author, year, first n characters of (title)) for some number n; or perhaps (author, year, first 3 words of (title)) _[Clarify this. Currently, the full title must be specified.]_  * For citations, if citation_ doi If a `citation_doi`  is available, then available for all citations in  the rest of fields pertaining to data set,  the citation corresponding to each row  may be left blank. However, if specified in a `citation_doi` column. In this case, the `citation_author`, `citation_year`, and `citation_title` columns must all be deleted. (Alternatively,  the citation_ string `-ignore` may be appended to each of these headings. One might want to do this, for example, to keep a visual record of the author, year, and title even when it is the citation  doi that is being used to determine how the data will associated with a citation in the database.)  * Conversely, if a `citation_doi`  is not available, then citation_ available for all citations in the data set, or if it is preferred to specify the citation by  author,citation_  year, and citation_ title title, then the `citation_doi` column should be deleted and the `citation_author`, `citation_year`, and `citation_title`  must all be entered. 2. site: use sitename Site  * If all of the data in the data set pertains to a single site, that site may be specified interactively.  * Otherwise, the `site` column is required. The value must match an existing `sitename` column value in the `sites` table of the database. (Letter case, leading and trailing spaces, and extra internal spaces are ignored when searching for a match.)  3. species: use scientificname Species  * If all of the data in the data set pertains to a single species, that species may be specified interactively.  * Otherwise, the `species` column is required. The value must match an existing `scientificname` column value in the `species` table of the database. (Again, letter case, leading and trailing spaces, and extra internal spaces are ignored when searching for a match.)  4. treatment: Treatment  *  use name 5. date: require one of the forms "2003-07-25", "2003-07", or "2003". Of these, the citation, site, species, treatment, and access_level may be specified interactively when uploading the dataset (if they are uniform for the whole set) rather than appearing as a field or set of fields of the CSV file. As noted above, for citations, this is done outside of the upload wizard by choosing a citation on the citations page.
