An Improved System to Measure Leaf Gas Exchange on Adaxial and Abaxial Surfaces [PDF]
Measurement of leaf carbon gain and water loss (gas exchange) in planta is a standard procedure in plant science research for attempting to understand physiological traits related to water use and photosynthesis. Leaves carry out gas exchange through the

Mycorrhizal stimulation of leaf gas exchange in relation to root colonization, shoot size, leaf phosphorus and nitrogen: a quantitative analysis of the literature using meta-regression [PDF]
Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis often stimulates gas exchange rates of the host plant. This may relate to mycorrhizal effects on host nutrition and growth rate, or the influence may occur independently of these.

High Leaf Vein Density Promotes Leaf Gas Exchange by Enhancing Leaf Hydraulic Conductance in Oryza sativa L. Plants [PDF]
Six cultivated rice genotypes showing different stomatal conductance (gs) values were used to investigate the influence of leaf vein traits on leaf gas exchange and leaf hydraulics.

Mixed Planting Can Improve Leaf Gas Exchange by Diversifying Plant Water Absorption Strategy [PDF]
Plants with diverse neighbors often exhibit significant variation in water absorption strategies, yet the responses of leaf gas exchange traits to water absorption strategies remain complex and uncertain.

Plantecophys--An R Package for Analysing and Modelling Leaf Gas Exchange Data. [PDF]
Here I present the R package 'plantecophys', a toolkit to analyse and model leaf gas exchange data. Measurements of leaf photosynthesis and transpiration are routinely collected with portable gas exchange instruments, and analysed with a few key models ...

Linking Leaf Gas Exchange to Non-Structural Carbohydrate Allocation to Understand the Early Establishment of Young Quercus and Fraxinus Species [PDF]
Forest restoration programs are increasingly adopted to mitigate climate change-driven ecosystem degradation, yet the plant functional strategies underpinning successful tree establishment are not fully understood.

Electrical signalling along the phloem and its physiological responses in the maize leaf [PDF]
To elucidate the role of electrical signalling in the phloem of maize the tips of attached leaves were stimulated by chilling and wounding. Two different signals were detected in the phloem at the middle of the leaf using the aphid stylet technique: (i ...

Use of leaf gas exchange measurement enhances the characterization of growth, yield, physiology, and abiotic stress response in grapevines. Accuracy of a crop response model depends upon sample size, which is often limited due to the prolonged time ...

The Impact of Phloem Feeding Insects on Leaf Ecophysiology Varies With Leaf Age
Herbivore insects have strong impacts on leaf gas exchange when feeding on the plant. Leaf age also drives leaf gas exchanges but the interaction of leaf age and phloem herbivory has been largely underexplored. We investigated the amplitude and direction

When temperature in the leaf gas exchange system changes, the thermodynamic parameters describing the condition of moist air also change. A temperature change of 1 oC in plant leaf tissues leads to a change in partial water vapour pressure of 144 Pa in ...
