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 ...

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 ...

Increased Leaf Size: Different Means to an End [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 2010 AbstractThe final size of plant organs, such as leaves, is tightly controlled by environmental and genetic factors that must spatially and temporally coordinate cell expansion and cell cycle activity. However, this regulation of organ growth is still poorly understood.

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

Scaling relationships among twig size, leaf size and leafing intensity in a successional series of subtropical forests [PDF]
Tree Physiology, 2013 Scaling relationships among twig size, leaf size and leafing intensity fundamentally influence the twig-leaf deployment pattern, a property that affects the architecture and functioning of plants. However, our understanding of how these relationships change within a species or between species as a function of forest succession is unclear. We determined

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018 Organ size regulation is dependent on the precise spatial and temporal regulation of cell proliferation and cell expansion. A number of transcription factors have been identified that play a key role in the determination of aerial lateral organ size, but

Leaf size and leaf display of thirty-eight tropical tree species [PDF]
Oecologia, 2008 Trees forage for light through optimal leaf display. Effective leaf display is determined by metamer traits (i.e., the internode, petiole, and corresponding leaf), and thus these traits strongly co-determine carbon gain and as a result competitive advantage in a light-limited environment.
