Leaf Mutant 7 Encoding Heat Shock Protein OsHSP40 Regulates Leaf Size in Rice. [PDF]
Int J Mol Sci, 2022 Leaf size is an important agronomic trait directly affecting yield in rice, and thus understanding the genes determining leaf size is important in breeding. In this study, one Leaf Mutant 7 (lm7) with small leaf size was isolated using ethyl methane sulphonate (EMS) mutagenesis from the japonica Zhenggeng 1925.

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 ...

Patterns of leaf morphological variation in Quercus frainetto Ten. growing on different soil types in Serbia [PDF]
Archives of Biological Sciences, 2022 Leaf morphology is at a certain level defined by the ways in which plants adapt to different habitats, especially in large trees. In this study, morphological variations in leaf size and shape of the Hungarian oak (Quercus frainetto Ten.) growing on ...

Leaf Area Estimation by Photographing Leaves Sandwiched between Transparent Clear File Folder Sheets
Horticulturae, 2023 Image analysis is a promising method for in situ leaf area measurement. However, as leaves are three-dimensional, the use of two-dimensional images captured using a digital camera can result in underestimation. To overcome this problem, we tested a clear

Leaf size versus leaf numbertrade-offs in dioecious angiosperms [PDF]
Journal of Plant Ecology, 2012 Aims We explore the possible role of leaf size/number trade-offs for the interpretation of leaf size dimorphism in dioecious plant species. Methods Total above-ground biomass (both male and female) for three herbaceous dioecious species and individual shoots (from both male and female plants) for three woody dioecious species were sampled to record ...

Leaf water content and palisade cell size [PDF]
New Phytologist, 2005 Summary The palisade cell sizes in leaves of Eucalyptus pauciflora were estimated in paradermal sections of cryo‐fixed leaves imaged in the cryo‐scanning electron microscope, as a quantity called the cell area fraction (CAF). Cell sizes were measured in detached leaves as a function of leaf water content, in intact leaves in the field during a day"s ...

Mutational spaces for leaf shape and size [PDF]
HFSP Journal, 2008 A key approach to understanding how genes control growth and form is to analyze mutants in which shape and size have been perturbed. Although many mutants of this kind have been described in plants and animals, a general quantitative framework for describing them has yet to be established.

Leaf size modulation by cytokinins in sesame plants
Plant Physiology and Biochemistry, 2021 Phytohormones play important roles in controlling leaf size and in the modulation of various stress responses, including drought. In this study, hormone profiling analyses by ultra high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) was performed in leaves collected at three stages of active ...

Photoperiod-H1 (Ppd-H1) Controls Leaf Size [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 2016 Leaf size is a major determinant of plant photosynthetic activity and biomass; however, it is poorly understood how leaf size is genetically controlled in cereal crop plants like barley (Hordeum vulgare). We conducted a genome-wide association scan for flowering time, leaf width, and leaf length in a diverse panel of European winter cultivars grown in ...
