Leaf size variations in a dominant desert shrub, Reaumuria soongarica, adapted to heterogeneous environments [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2020 The climate in arid Central Asia (ACA) has changed rapidly in recent decades, but the ecological consequences of this are far from clear. To predict the impacts of climate change on ecosystem functioning, greater attention should be given to the ...

Size-dependent leaf area ratio in plant twigs: implication for leaf size optimization [PDF]
Annals of Botany, 2009 Although many hypotheses have been proposed to explain variation in leaf size, the mechanism underlying the variation remains not fully understood. To help understand leaf size variation, the cost/benefit of twig size was analysed, since, according to Corner's rule, twig size is positively correlated with the size of appendages the twig bears.An ...
