Section properties of palm petioles, Part 1: The influence of section shape on the flexural and torsional properties of selected palm petioles [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 Contributions of Neotropical Tree Families to the Structure of Common Amazon Forest-Types

open access: yesInternational Journal of Plant Biology, 2023
In order to investigate how familial biodiversity structures forests in the critically important Amazon, I combined past plot samplings to investigate the contributions of tree families in those samplings to the structure of common Amazon forest types. I

Designing gRNAs targeting oil palm phytoene desaturase (EgPDS) gene and construction of vectors for oil palm CRISPR/Cas9 study

open access: yes, 2022
The CRISPR/Cas9 system is a precise and versatile genetic tool used to induce site-specific manipulation in the targeted gene. This study elaborates on the strategy to select the gRNAs targeting the oil palm phytoene desaturase (EgPDS) gene, which ...

Section properties of palm petioles, part 2: The relationship of petiole histology with the torsional rigidity of the palm, Trachycarpus fortunei [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The Trachycarpus fortunei palm is a good example of a palm with a large leaf blade supported by a correspondingly large petiole. The interaction of the material and functional properties of the petiole was analysed using engineering and botanical methods
