Quantifying loopy network architectures [PDF]
, 2011 Biology presents many examples of planar distribution and structural networks having dense sets of closed loops. An archetype of this form of network organization is the vasculature of dicotyledonous leaves, which showcases a hierarchically-nested ...

Genetic Architecture of Leaf Ecophysiological Traits in Helianthus [PDF]
Journal of Heredity, 2007 We investigated quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for several leaf chemistry traits in early-generation hybrids between Helianthus annuus and Helianthus petiolaris, the parental species of the ancient diploid hybrid sunflower species Helianthus anomalus, Helianthus deserticola, and Helianthus paradoxus. We grew individuals of a second-generation backcross

Controlling plant architecture by manipulation of gibberellic acid signalling in petunia. [PDF]
, 2014 Since stem elongation is a gibberellic acid (GA) response, GA inhibitors are commonly used to control plant height in the production of potted ornamentals and bedding plants. In this study, we investigated interfering with GA signaling by using molecular

The Making of a Compound Leaf: Genetic Manipulation of Leaf Architecture in Tomato [PDF]
Cell, 1996 The most distinctive morphogenetic feature of leaves is their being either simple or compound. To study the basis for this dichotomy, we have exploited the maize homeobox-containing Knotted-1 (Kn1) gene in conjunction with mutations that alter the tomato compound leaf.

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 ...
