Leaf Fresh Weight Versus Dry Weight: Which is Better for Describing the Scaling Relationship between Leaf Biomass and Leaf Area for Broad-Leaved Plants? [PDF]

open access: yesForests, 2019
Leaf dry mass per unit area (LMA) is considered to represent the photosynthetic capacity, which actually implies a hypothesis that foliar water mass (leaf fresh weight minus leaf dry weight) is proportional to leaf dry weight during leaf growth. However, relevant studies demonstrated that foliar water mass disproportionately increases with increasing ...

Is Partitioning of Dry Weight and Leaf Area Within Dactylis glomerata Affected by N and CO2Enrichment? [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Botany, 2000
We examined changes in dry weight and leaf area within Dactylis glomerata L. plants using allometric analysis to determine whether observed patterns were truly aAected by (CO2) and N supply or merely reflect ontogenetic drift. Plants were grown hydroponically at four concentrations of NOin controlled environment cabinets at ambient (360 m ll ˇ1 ) or ...

Measurement of photosynthesis by the dry weight increment of samples composed of leaf segments

open access: yesBiologia Plantarum, 1962
A method is described for the application of the dry weight increment technique of photosynthesis measurement to plants with narrow leaf-blades (e.g. Festuca, Stipa etc.). A sample of leaf tissue is represented by the area of a frame filled with leaf segments placed side by side. The leaf segments 26 mm.

Promotion of the seedling growth (Nitraria scoberi L.) in cultivating trays and seedling bag [PDF]

open access: yesDesert, 2021
The importance of Nitraria scoberi in many arid and semi-arid biodiversity projects is undeniable. Improving the vegetative properties of this plant is critical to the success of these designs. The present study was designed to achieve the best chemical,

Varying Relationship Between Vascular Plant Leaf Area and Leaf Biomass Along an Elevational Gradient on the Eastern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
The altitudinal gradient is one of the driving factors leading to leaf trait variation. It is crucial to understand the response and adaptation strategies of plants to explore the variation of leaf traits and their scaling relationship along the ...

THE EFFECT OF CROP LOAD ON FRUIT DRY WEIGHT AND DRY WEIGHT CONTENT, SPECIFIC LEAF WEIGHT, AND LEAF CARBON EXCHANGE. [PDF]

open access: yesHortScience, 1992
Mature apple trees ( Malus domestica Borkh.) were studied in the 1989 and 1990 seasons to explore the effect of differential crop load on fruit dry weight (DW), DW content, specific leaf weight, and leaf carbon exchange, using girdled and non-girdled limbs.

EFFECT OF DEFOLIATION ON GROWTH AND YIELD COMPONENTS OF TWO SORGHUM GENOTYPES [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Plant Production, 2006
Two field experiments were conducted at Shandaweel Agric. Res. Station in Sohag, Egypt during 2002 and 2003 seasons. The aim was to identify the effect and contribution of indMdual leaves removal from flag leaf through the 6 leaf and 7 leaf to down ...

The relationship between leaf area and vegetative characteristics in Barecat and French faba bean cultivars [PDF]

open access: yesپژوهش‌های حبوبات ایران, 2018
Introduction Since the leaves are the main source of production of photosynthetic substances in plants, dry matter production and crop yield potential is largely depend on the leaf surface, and many environmental changes affect growth and yield through ...

Sustainable Valorisation of Biowaste for Soilless Cultivation of Salvia Officinalis in a Circular Bioeconomy

open access: yesAgronomy, 2020
The aim of this work is to assess the usefulness of biowaste deriving from Circular Bioeconomy (CBE) processes (i.e., vermicompost, compost and digestate), as growing substrates for the partial or total replacement of peat, by measuring the vegetation ...
