Modeling of Shoot Elongation and Leaf Appearance in Potted Mulberry [PDF]
To predict mulberry growth, modeling of shoot elongation and leaf appearance of potted mulberries was attempted. Potted mulberries were grown in temperature-controlled phytotrons. Changes in the rates of mulberry shoot elongation and leaf appearance, and

Distinct controls of leaf widening and elongation by light and evaporative demand in maize [PDF]
AbstractLeaf expansion depends on both carbon and water availabilities. In cereals, most of experimental effort has focused on leaf elongation, with essentially hydraulic effects. We have tested if evaporative demand and light could have distinct effects on leaf elongation and widening, and if short‐term effects could translate into final leaf ...

Modeling of Mulberry Shoot Elongation and Leaf Appearancein Field Conditions
To predict mulberry (Morus alba L.‘Shin-ichinose’) vegetative growth, I constructed shoot elongation and leaf appearance models for mulberry grown in field conditions.

A functional–structural model of elongation of the grass leaf and its relationships with the phyllochron [PDF]
The emergence of a regular phyllochron from the dynamic processes of leaf initiation, leaf elongation and whorl construction suggests causal relationships between leaf elongation and leaf emergence. This paper presents a hypothesis as to how the ontogeny of the growth zone of leaves is triggered by emergence events, and implements it in a dynamic model

Strigolactones Promote Leaf Elongation in Tall Fescue through Upregulation of Cell Cycle Genes and Downregulation of Auxin Transport Genes in Tall Fescue under Different Temperature Regimes [PDF]
Strigolactones (SLs) have recently been shown to play roles in modulating plant architecture and improving plant tolerance to multiple stresses, but the underlying mechanisms for SLs regulating leaf elongation and the influence by air temperature are ...

The elongation rate at the base of a maize leaf shows an invariant pattern during both the steady‐state elongation and the establishment of the elongation zone [PDF]
Spatial and temporal analyses of elongation and cell length of monocotyledon leaves have most often been performed during the period when leaves are visible and elongate at a constant rate (steady-state). In the present study, the focus was on the earlier stages, during the establishment of the elongation zone. Regardless of leaf development stage, the

Modeling leaf area development in soybean (Glycine max L.) based on the branch growth and leaf elongation [PDF]
Several models have been proposed to simulate the leaf area index (LAI) in soybean (Glycine max L.); however, these models do not directly account for the effect of branch growth. Because the increases in branches and branch node vary with plant density,

Components of leaf elongation rate and their relationship to specific leaf area in contrasting grasses [PDF]
Summary In grasses the leaf growth zone is the main site of shoot growth where anatomical and chemical characteristics of leaves originate. Yet, there is insufficient information to generalize as to whether the leaf growth zone reflects habitat characteristics, whether leaf growth traits are regularly interrelated, and whether they coincide with ...

Sucrose-activated TOR and phyA signaling alleviates shade-mediated inhibition of leaf development in Arabidopsis [PDF]
To over-top the neighbors, shade-intolerant plants trigger shade avoidance responses with increasing the elongation of stem-like organs at the expense of leaf development. Shade-induced elongation growth has been extensively studied, while the regulatory

From Individual Leaf Elongation to Whole Shoot Leaf Area Expansion: a Comparison of Three Aegilops and Two Triticum Species [PDF]
Rapid leaf area expansion is a desirable trait in the early growth stages of cereal crops grown in low-rainfall areas. In this study, the traits associated with inherent variation in early leaf area expansion rates have been investigated in two wheat species (Triticum aestivum and T.
