Measured and Predicted Turbulent Kinetic Energy in Flow Through Emergent Vegetation With Real Plant Morphology

Water Resources Research, 2020
Velocity and forces on individual plants were measured within an emergent canopy with real plant morphology and used to develop predictions for the vertical profiles of velocity and turbulent kinetic energy (TKE).

Traits of plant morphology, stalk mechanical strength, and biomass accumulation in the selection of lodging-resistant maize cultivars

, 2020
Lodging resistance is a major desired trait in modern maize breeding. Identifying parameters to evaluate lodging resistance could help crop breeders develop maize cultivars with improved lodging resistance.

Effects of plant morphology on root–soil hydraulic interactions of Schefflera heptaphylla

, 2020
Root water uptake induces additional soil suction by soil water extraction. However, induced soil suction restricts root water uptake when beyond a threshold (st) and tends to stop water uptake at a limiting suction (sl). This process is called root–soil

Aerodynamic characterisation of green wall vegetation based on plant morphology: An experimental and computational fluid dynamics approach

Biosystems Engineering, 2019
The installation of urban green infrastructure, particularly green walls, has proven to be an effective strategy for the mitigation of particulate matter (PM) pollution and the urban heat island effect.

Gene networks and the evolution of plant morphology.

Current opinion in plant biology, 2018
Elaboration of morphology depends on the precise orchestration of gene expression by key regulatory genes. The hierarchy and relationship among the participating genes is commonly known as gene regulatory network (GRN).

RELATIONAL PLANT MORPHOLOGY

Nature, 1946
ALTHOUGH occasional protests have been made by plant morphologists for many years against the inflexible framework of morphological concepts to which they have felt compelled to adhere in interpreting their experimental data, little attempt has been made to discard the defective outlook of traditional morphology in favour of something more adequate ...

The genetics of plant morphological evolution

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2002
Considerable progress has been made in identifying genes that are involved in the evolution of plant morphologies. Elements of the ABC model of flower development are conserved throughout angiosperms, and homologous MADS-box genes function in gymnosperm reproduction.

Morphology of Microtubules of Plant Cell

Science, 1964
The microtubules present in the cortices of plant cells are found to have a wall made up of slender filamentous subunits, probably 13 in number, which have a center-to-center spacing of about 45 angstrom units. Thus the micromorphology of these tubules is similar to that reported for the 9 + 2 fibrils of rat sperm flagella.
