Scaling the leaf length-times-width equation to predict total leaf area of shoots. [PDF]
Ann Bot, 2022 Abstract Background and Aims An individual plant consists of different-sized shoots, each of which consists of different-sized leaves. To predict plant-level physiological responses from the responses of individual leaves, modelling this within-shoot leaf size variation is necessary.

Leaf Length Predicts Twig Xylem Vessel Diameter Across Angiosperms. [PDF]
Plant Cell EnvironABSTRACT As plants grow taller, increasing conductive pathlength imposes hydraulic resistance, challenging the maintenance of water transport to leaves. While tip‐to‐base conduit widening along the stem helps mitigate this resistance, theoretical models and empirical data suggest that stem widening alone is insufficient to fully ...

The Scientific World Journal, 2012 The characterization of biomass and its dynamics provides valuable information for the assessment of natural and transplanted eelgrass populations. The need for simple, nondestructive assessments has led to the use of the leaf biomass-to-length ratio for

Leaf vessel length and stem–node connectivity in woody angiosperms
Journal of Experimental BotanyAbstract Xylem vessel length is an under-characterized trait, particularly within leaves. We quantified leaf vessel length distributions and examined nodal structure and morphology in nine woody species using silicone injection, microscopy, and micro-computed tomography imaging.

The Length of a Leaf Coloration on a Random Binary Tree [PDF]
SIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics, 1997 An assignment of colors to objects induces a natural integer weight on each tree that has these objects as leaves. This weight is called "parsimony length" in biostatistics and is the basis of the "maximum parsimony" technique for reconstructing evolutionary trees.

Identification of QTL underlying the leaf length and area of different leaves in barley. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2019 AbstractLeaf is the main organ of photosynthesis, which significantly impacts crop yield. A high-density linkage map containing 1894 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and 68 simple sequence repeats (SSR) markers was used to identify quantitative trait locus (QTL) for flag leaf length (FLL), second leaf length (SLL), third leaf length (TLL), fourth ...

Stem Diameter (and Not Length) Limits Twig Leaf Biomass [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019 The relationship between leaf and stem biomass as well as the relationship between leaf biomass and stem length and diameter are important to our understanding of a broad range of important plant scaling relationship because of their relationship to photosynthesis and thus growth. To understand how twig architecture (i.e., current year leaves, and stem

Leaf-to-leaf distances and their moments in finite and infinite m-ary tree graphs [PDF]
, 2015 We study the leaf-to-leaf distances on full and complete m-ary graphs using a recursive approach. In our formulation, leaves are ordered along a line. We find explicit analytical formulae for the sum of all paths for arbitrary leaf-to-leaf distance r as
