The Changes of Leaf Reflectance Spectrum and Leaf Functional Traits of Osmanthus fragrans Are Related to the Parasitism of Cuscuta japonica

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Studies on the influence of parasitism on plants based on hyperspectral analysis have not been reported so far. To fully understand the variation characteristics and laws of leaf reflectance spectrum and functional traits after the urban plant ...

Intraspecific differences in plant functional traits are related to urban atmospheric particulate matter

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2021
Background Functional trait-based ecological research has been instrumental in advancing our understanding of environmental changes. It is still, however, unclear how the functional traits of urban plants respond to atmospheric particulate matter, and ...

Natural variation at FLM splicing has pleiotropic effects modulating ecological strategies in Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
FLOWERING LOCUS M (FLM) is known as a repressor of Arabidopsis flowering. Here, the authors show that a single intronic substitution of FLM modulates leaf color and plant growth strategy along the leaf economics spectrum, as well as plays a role in plant

Soil Compaction Drives an Intra-Genotype Leaf Economics Spectrum in Wine Grapes

open access: yesAgriculture, 2022
Intraspecific trait variation is a critical determinant of ecosystem processes, especially in agroecosystems where single species or genotypes exist in very high abundance. Yet to date, only a small number of studies have evaluated if, how, or why traits

How do leaf veins influence the worldwide leaf economic spectrum? Review and synthesis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Botany, 2013
Leaf vein traits are implicated in the determination of gas exchange rates and plant performance. These traits are increasingly considered as causal factors affecting the 'leaf economic spectrum' (LES), which includes the light-saturated rate of photosynthesis, dark respiration, foliar nitrogen concentration, leaf dry mass per area (LMA) and leaf ...

Funkcionalna ekologija rastlin: preverjanje izbranih konceptov na primeru rastlinskih vrst gozdnih rastiščnih tipov v Sloveniji

open access: yesActa Silvae et Ligni, 2022
Using Slovenian forest flora as an example, we investigated four plant functional traits: specific leaf area (SLP), leaf dry matter content (VSS), plant height (VIŠ) and seed/spore mass (MAS).

Overwintering evergreen oaks reverse typical relationships between leaf traits in a species spectrum [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2016
The leaf economics spectrum has given us a fundamental understanding of the species variations in leaf variables. Across plant species, tight correlations among leaf mass per area (LMA), mass-based nitrogen (Nm) and photosynthetic rate (Am) and leaf ...

Time for a Plant Structural Economics Spectrum

open access: yesFrontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2019
We argue that tree and crown structural diversity can and should be integrated in the whole-plant economics spectrum. Ecologists have found that certain functional trait combinations have been more viable than others during evolution, generating a trait ...
