High Leaf Vein Density Promotes Leaf Gas Exchange by Enhancing Leaf Hydraulic Conductance in Oryza sativa L. Plants [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 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.

An Improved System to Measure Leaf Gas Exchange on Adaxial and Abaxial Surfaces [PDF]
Bio-Protocol, 2023 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]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016 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.

Cotton leaf gas exchange responses to irradiance and leaf aging
Biologia Plantarum, 2015 Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) net photosynthetic rate (PN) decreased with leaf age and low irradiance, and the interaction of these factors might lead to decreased yields mainly in crops with a high plant density.

Mixed Planting Can Improve Leaf Gas Exchange by Diversifying Plant Water Absorption Strategy [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionPlants 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.

Leaf Gas Exchange and Photosystem II Fluorescence Responses to CO2 Cycling. [PDF]
Plants (Basel), 2023 Experimental systems to simulate future elevated CO2 conditions in the field often have large, rapid fluctuations in CO2. To examine possible impacts of such fluctuations on photosynthesis, the intact leaves of the field-grown plants of five species were exposed to two-minute cycles of CO2 between 400 and 800 μmol mol−1, lasting a total of 10 min, with

Electrical signalling along the phloem and its physiological responses in the maize leaf [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2013 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 ...
