Leaf size estimation based on leaf length, width and shape [PDF]
Annals of Botany, 2021 AbstractBackground and AimsLeaf size has considerable ecological relevance, making it desirable to obtain leaf size estimations for as many species worldwide as possible. Current global databases, such as TRY, contain leaf size data for ~30 000 species, which is only ~8% of known species worldwide.

A Growth-Based Framework for Leaf Shape Development and Diversity [PDF]
Cell, 2019 How do genes modify cellular growth to create morphological diversity? We study this problem in two related plants with differently shaped leaves: Arabidopsis thaliana (simple leaf shape) and Cardamine hirsuta (complex shape with leaflets).

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2001 Variation among vascular plants in the initiation and patterning of leaves results in a diverse array of leaf shape, including the strap-like leaf of many grasses and the broad lamina of most eudicots. Recent findings highlight the importance of interactions between the shoot apical meristem (SAM) and developing leaf primordia in axis specification and

Section properties of palm petioles, Part 1: The influence of section shape on the flexural and torsional properties of selected palm petioles [PDF]
, 2008 Shape factors have been used to calculate the shape efficiency of palm leaf petiole sections in order to understand how palms compensate for the torsional and bending forces put upon them by their environment.

The shape of a long leaf [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2009 Long leaves in terrestrial plants and their submarine counterparts, algal blades, have a typical, saddle-like midsurface and rippled edges. To understand the origin of these morphologies, we dissect leaves and differentially stretch foam ribbons to show that these shapes arise from a simple cause, the elastic relaxation via bending that follows either ...

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Heterophylly, the existence of different leaf shapes and sizes on the same plant, has been observed in many flowering plant species. Yet, the genetic characteristics and genetic basis of heterophylly in soybean remain unknown.

Allometric Individual Leaf Area Estimation in Chrysanthemum
Agronomy, 2021 A model for estimating the area of individual leaves (LA) by employing their dimensions was developed for chrysanthemum. Further hypotheses were tested: (a) LA estimation is improved by considering blade length (Lb) rather than leaf length (L), and (b) a

ATAC‐seq exposes differences in chromatin accessibility leading to distinct leaf shapes in mulberry
Plant Direct, 2022 Mulberry leaf shape is an important agronomic trait indicating yield, growth, development, and habitat variation. China was the earliest country in the world to grow mulberry for sericulture, and it is also one of the great contributions of the Chinese ...
