Strengthening Structures in the Petiole–Lamina Junction of Peltate Leaves
Biomimetics, 2021 Peltate- or umbrella- shaped leaves are characterised by a petiole more or less centrally attached to the lamina on the abaxial side. The transition from the petiole to lamina in peltate leaves resembles a significant and abrupt geometrical change from a

Multiple synergistic effect and mechanical enhancement of lotus petiole
Materials & Design, 2021 The curved petiole of lotus makes it more flexible, absorbs much more energy, resists shear forces and torsion performance. Multiple synergies effectively ensure the integrity of the overall lotus, no matter how the lotus leaf deforms, the petiole is ...

Varietal difference of soybean plant type focus on petiole
Plant Production Science, 2021 It is very important to keep the effective canopy structure in soybean from flowering to seed developing period. The petiole elongation effects the position of leaf blade in canopy.

Leaf Pigments, Surface Wax and Spectral Vegetation Indices for Heat Stress Resistance in Pea
Agronomy, 2022 Pea is a grain legume crop commonly grown in semi-arid temperate regions. Pea is susceptible to heat stress that affects development and reduces yield. Leaf pigments and surface wax in a crop canopy make the primary interaction with the environment and ...

Functional Mapping of Genes Modulating Plant Shade Avoidance Using Leaf Traits
Plants, 2023 Shade avoidance syndrome (SAS) refers to a set of plant responses that increases light capture in dense stands. This process is crucial for plants in natural and agricultural environments as they compete for resources and avoid suboptimal conditions ...

Optimization of leaf morphology in relation to leaf water status: A theory. [PDF]
, 2020 The leaf economic traits such as leaf area, maximum carbon assimilation rate, and venation are all correlated and related to water availability. Furthermore, leaves are often broad and large in humid areas and narrower in arid/semiarid and hot and cold ...
