The relationship between leaf area growth and biomass accumulation in Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Leaf area growth determines the light interception capacity of a crop and is often used as a surrogate for plant growth in high-throughput phenotyping systems.

Stomatal Features, Specific Leaf Area and Water Relations in Three Pistachio Cultivars [PDF]

open access: yesPlants
Stomatal traits are determinants of plant water relations and may differ among cultivars within a given species. These features have been rarely studied in tree crops, such as pistachio (Pistacia vera L.), the cultivation of which is expanding in several

Morphological and Physiological Responses of Indigofera tinctoria L. to Light Intensity [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2021
Synthetic dyes can cause health and environmental impacts. Thus, there are opportunities to develop natural dyes, one of which is produced by Indigofera tinctoria plants. This plant is from Fabaceae that has the potential to produce a natural blue color.

New data of plant leaf traits from Central Europe

open access: yesData in Brief, 2022
Trait-based ecology is gaining ground nowadays on species-based ecology: the number of research and publication focusing on the ecological role of taxa instead of the species themselves increased significantly in the last two decades. One great advantage

Effects of shading and soil compaction on the growth, leaf area and biomass allocation of tomatoes (Lycopersicon esculentum)

open access: yesDavao Research Journal, 2020
Plants are often exposed to stressors such as shading and soil compaction, influencing their morphology and physiology. This study aimed to determine the effects of shading (e.g.

Functional traits of tree saplings and adults in a tropical cloud forest restoration context

open access: yesBotan‪ical Sciences, 2020
Background: The use of tree species’ functional traits is a promising approach in forest restoration. However, some traits may change during ontogeny. Questions: Does intraspecific variation in functional traits occur between sapling and adult stages?

Patterns and drivers of community specific leaf area in China

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation, 2022
Specific leaf area (SLA), an important functional trait, reflects the abilities of light capture and adaption to environments of plants. Earlier spatiotemporal changes in SLA at the species level have been widely studied.
