Leaf economics and plant hydraulics drive leaf : wood area ratios
New Phytologist, 2019 Summary Biomass and area ratios between leaves, stems and roots regulate many physiological and ecological processes. The Huber value Hv (sapwood area/leaf area ratio) is central to plant water balance and drought responses. However, its coordination with key plant functional traits is poorly understood, and prevents developing trait‐based prediction

Size-dependent leaf area ratio in plant twigs: implication for leaf size optimization [PDF]
Annals of Botany, 2009 Although many hypotheses have been proposed to explain variation in leaf size, the mechanism underlying the variation remains not fully understood. To help understand leaf size variation, the cost/benefit of twig size was analysed, since, according to Corner's rule, twig size is positively correlated with the size of appendages the twig bears.An ...

Morphological and moisture availability controls of the leaf area‐to‐sapwood area ratio: analysis of measurements on
Ecology and Evolution, 2015 Abstract The leaf area‐to‐sapwood area ratio (LA:SA) is a key plant trait that links photosynthesis to transpiration. The pipe model theory states that the sapwood cross‐sectional area of a stem or branch at any point should scale isometrically with the area of leaves distal to that point.

Leaf shrinkage: a predictive indicator of the potential variation of the surface area-to-volume ratio according to the leaf moisture content [PDF]
SpringerPlus, 2016 Leaf shrinkage provides insights into the potential variation of foliar SVR, within the same species, when leaf moisture content is changing in response to water deficit. Since SVR is among the most significant plant flammability features, leaf shrinkage would be a relevant component of fuel hazard assessment through its influence on SVR, enhancing-if ...

Estimation of Leaf Area of Taro (Colocasia esculenta)
Jurnal Ilmu Pertanian Indonesia, 2020 Estimation of leaf area by using leaf length and leaf width variables could be done without destruction of the leaves from plants and more practical than using the leaf areameter.
