Leaf illumination and root cooling inhibit bean leaf expansion by decreasing turgor pressure

Journal of Experimental Botany, 1994
Phaseolus vulgaris plants with expanding primary leaves were subjected to dark-light or light-dark transition at a root temperature of 25 o C, or to root cooling to 10 o C. Illumination or darkening caused rapid changes in water flux through the plants and in epidermal turgor pressure when analysed by pressure probe.

Peanut Leaf Photosynthetic Activity in Cool Field Environments

Crop Science, 1994
Controlled environment studies have shown that peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) leaf CO2 exchange rates (CER) are sensitive to night temperatures <20 °C and that genotypes vary in their ability to acclimate after exposure to continuous cool nights. Our objectives were to investigate the relationship between minimum air temperature (Tmin) and leaflet CER

Phenology of leaf optical properties and their relationship to mesophyll development in cool-temperate deciduous broad-leaf trees.

Agricultural and Forest Meteorology, 2021
Abstract Leaf optical properties (reflectance and transmittance spectra of a single leaf) are the key to interpreting remote sensing data regarding the structure and functions of vegetation canopies. These properties are determined by leaf biochemical and anatomical traits, which change seasonally in deciduous species.

Novel leaf-like channels for cooling rectangular lithium ion batteries

Applied Thermal Engineering, 2019
Abstract To provide a favorable temperature for a Li-ion battery liquid cooling system, novel leaf-like channels with loops were designed as the dispersed layer. Furthermore, four collection channels along diagonal lines were established to decrease the temperature gradient, which formed a double-layer cooling channel.

Relationship Between Leaf Area Index and Atmospheric Cooling of Tree Species

Indian Journal of Forestry, 2019
Presence of tree canopy is known to strongly influence ambient temperature and other micro-climatic conditions underneath. Therefore, planting trees with close or dense crown can be used as effective measure to provide thermal cover to species of flora and fauna adapted to shady and cooler environment. The cooling produced by a tree is exclusively the

Leaf Damage in Cool‐season Grasses Subjected to Simulated Hoof Pressures

Forage & Grazinglands, 2012
Although grazing animals may potentially damage grass tissues, few reported estimates of susceptibility of different species or cultivars to trampling exist, and no standard method of leaf tissue damage measurement has been established. Experiments were undertaken with excised sections of leaf material of tall fescue [Schedonorus phoenix (Scop.) Holub],
