A leaf is a flattened, typically green structure that is attached to the stem of a plant. Leaves are one of the main organs of a plant and play a vital role in its growth, metabolism, and reproduction ...
A new method predicts leaf optical properties from traits, improving canopy light modeling and photosynthesis estimates in ...
This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract The relationships between leaf structure, nitrogen concentration and CO$_2$ assimilation rate (A) were studied for 14 grass species grown in ...
When grown in a common light environment, the leaves of shade-tolerant evergreen trees have a larger leaf mass per unit area (LMA) than their light-demanding counterparts, associated with differences ...
Farmers who understand how corn hybrid ear type and corn plant structure can work together are on the road to being able to make better hybrid selections for their fields, says Ken Ferrie, Farm ...
(Nanowerk News) Several plants and animals have evolved surfaces with long-term (i.e., days to months) air-retainability to prevent wetting and submersion. One example is Salvinia, a plant floating on ...
Patterns of variation at microsatellite loci suggest that root populations of the pest grape phylloxera (Daktulosphaira vitifoliae) are largely parthenogenetic in Australian vineyards. To investigate ...
Ms Armit: The leaf is a major organ in plants in which photosynthesis occurs. Without photosynthesis, there'd be very little life on Earth, because when plants photosynthesise, they take in carbon ...
