Rate of Leaf Appearance in Crimson Clover
Crop Science, 2002 Understanding factors that affect growth and development of crimson clover (Trifolium incarnatum L.) are important for the development of management practices to optimize forage utilization. In a 3‐yr field experiment at College Station, TX, we evaluated the effects of planting date on rate of leaf appearance of an intermediate‐ and late‐maturing ...

Rice crop duration and leaf appearance rate in a variable thermal environment. II. Comparison of genotypes [PDF]
Field Crops Research, 1998 Abstract Rice crop duration in tropical-arid, irrigated environments, such as the Sahel, varies strongly among seasons and years. For rice double-cropping systems, cultivars are needed that have a stable duration under variable daylengths and temperatures.

Role of Leaf Appearance Rate and the Coleoptile Tiller in Regulating Production
Crop Science, 1994 Forage production in tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) depends on elongation of existing leaves and production of new leaves and tillers. Genetic selection for high leaf elongation rate (LER), however, results in plants with limited tillering capacity.

Rice crop duration and leaf appearance rate in a variable thermal environment. III. Heritability of photothermal traits [PDF]
Field Crops Research, 1998 Abstract In arid, irrigated, rice environments, crop duration is highly variable, resulting in uncertain crop calendars for double cropping. The main causes of this variability are varying temperature and daylength. Breeding for stable crop duration in such environments might make a major contribution to rice production.

Annals of Botany, 1994 This study was conducted to test the hypothesis that photoperiod or its rate of change significantly affects the rate of leaf appearance (RLA) and final number of leaves (FNL) in wheat, as suggested from several time-of-sowing experiments. Two wheat cultivars (Condor and Thatcher) were sown in the field on 2 Sep. 1992 at Melbourne (38°S).

Photoperiod and temperature effects on the rate of leaf appearance in quinoa ( Chenopodium quinoa )
Australian Journal of Plant Physiology, 2000 Knowledge of factors controlling leaf appearance is important for understanding climatic adaptation of a plant species. For quinoa ( Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) we show that both temperature and photoperiod control the rate of leaf appearance. Minimum phyllochron (thermal time between the appearance of two successive leaves as observed under short days)

Leaf appearance rate and associated characters in some Mexican and Australian wheats
Australian Journal of Agricultural Research, 1974Three Mexican cultivars of high yield potential were compared in four field sowings with three Australian varieties of similar flowering time. The cultivars had different numbers of leaves on the main stem, associated mainly with differences in rate of leaf appearance rather than duration of leaf production.
