Decline of Leaf Hydraulic Conductance with Dehydration: Relationship to Leaf Size and Venation Architecture [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 2011 Abstract Across plant species, leaves vary enormously in their size and their venation architecture, of which one major function is to replace water lost to transpiration. The leaf hydraulic conductance (K leaf) represents the capacity of the transport system to deliver water, allowing stomata to remain open for photosynthesis ...

A Fig Leaf of “Green Architecture”
Проект Байкал, 2019 The idea of the city’s health is usually associated with greenery. Everybody calls for parks, gardens, street landscaping, but the declarations are not consistent with the reality. Urban greenery is treated cruelly.

Genetic architecture of heritable leaf microbes
Microbiology SpectrumHost-associated microbiomes are shaped by both their environment and host genetics, and often impact host performance. The scale of host genetic variation important to microbes is largely unknown yet fundamental to the community assembly of host ...

Genetic Architecture of Cereal Leaf Beetle Resistance in Wheat [PDF]
Plants, 2020 Wheat production can be severely damaged by endemic and invasive insect pests. Here, we investigated resistance to cereal leaf beetle in a panel of 876 winter wheat cultivars, and dissected the genetic architecture underlying this insect resistance by ...

Leaf life span and the leaf economic spectrum in the context of whole plant architecture [PDF]
Journal of Ecology, 2014 SummaryThe leaf economics spectrum (LES) has been an organizing framework of plant functional ecology for the past decade. TheLESdescribes a set of trade‐offs among traits related to plant carbon balance. Species with a long leaf life span (LLS) invest additional material for leaf protection and structural support and consequently tend to have a lower ...

Taxonomic implications of leaf architecture in the genus Hibiscus
South African Journal of Botany, 1995 Leaf architecture was investigated in 13 species of the genus Hibiscus. Mature leaves from both fresh and herbarium material were cleared using the customary methods, and Hickey’s terminology (1973) was used to describe the characters of leaf architecture. In all the species studied, the whole lamina was more or less symmetrical, and the major venation

Genome-Wide Identification and Analysis of Collar Region-Preferential Genes in Rice
Plants, 2023 The collar region plays a crucial role in leaf angle formation and plant architecture, which is important for improving crop yield given the challenges of diminishing arable land and changing environmental conditions.
