Effect of Cement Dust on Growth Parameters of Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum L.)
International Journal of Bio-Resource and Stress Management, 2023 The effect of cement dust on the growth parameters of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum L.) was studied. The cement dust (@ 2 g plant-1) exerted both inhibitory and promotory effects on different growth parameters. The decrease in number of leaves (59.69

Above- and below-ground competition in high and low irradiance: tree seedling responses to a competing liana Byttneria grandifolia [PDF]
, 2008 : In tropical forests, trees compete not only with other trees, but also with lianas, which may limit tree growth and regeneration. Liana effects may depend on the availability of above- and below-ground resources and differ between tree species.

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.

Does shade improve light interception efficiency? A comparison among seedlings from shade-tolerant and -intolerant temperate deciduous tree species [PDF]
, 2006 • Here, we tested two hypotheses: shading increases light interception efficiency (LIE) of broadleaved tree seedlings, and shade-tolerant species exhibit larger LIEs than do shade-intolerant ones.

Leaf Size and Leaf Area Index in Fagus sylvatica Forests: Competing Effects of Precipitation, Temperature, and Nitrogen Availability [PDF]
, 2008 Plants across diverse biomes tend to produce smaller leaves and a reduced total leaf area when exposed to drought. For mature trees of a single species, however, the leaf area-water supply relationship is not well understood.

The effects of different potted mixtures on the growth and development of miniature roses (Rosa ‘Orange Meillandina’) [PDF]
International Journal of Recycling of Organic Waste in Agriculture, 2020 Purpose The miniature rose is one of the most important potted flowers. So far, however, no research has focused on its optimal growing medium. This experiment was performed to evaluate the effects of different media on the growth and development of ...
