Effectiveness of Shade Levels on The Performance of Pseuderanthemum Graciliflorum and Melastoma Malabathricum for Urban Landscape Use [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
A study of different shade levels on two selected native flowering shrubs namely Pseuderanthernum graciliflomm and Melastoma malabathricum was carried out at the Horticulture Research Centre, MARDI, Serdang, Selangor from February 2003 until May 2004.

Effect of Cement Dust on Growth Parameters of Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum L.)

open access: yesInternational Journal of Bio-Resource and Stress Management, 2023
The effect of cement dust on the growth parameters of tomato (Lycopersicon escu­lentum L.) was studied. The cement dust (@ 2 g plant-1) exerted both inhibitory and promotory effects on different growth parameters. The decrease in number of leaves (59.69

TRY plant trait database - enhanced coverage and open access [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Plant traits-the morphological, anatomical, physiological, biochemical and phenological characteristics of plants-determine how plants respond to environmental factors, affect other trophic levels, and influence ecosystem properties and their benefits ...

Effect of Different Intensities of Leaf Removal on Tomato Development and Yield

open access: yesHorticulturae
Defoliation (leaf removal or pruning) is a common practice in tomato production that makes crops more manageable, prevents conditions conducive to fungal attack and increases the exposure of the fruit to light, especially in winter conditions.

Sustained enhancement of photosynthesis in mature deciduous forest trees after 8years of free air CO2 enrichment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Carbon uptake by forests constitutes half of the planet's terrestrial net primary production; therefore, photosynthetic responses of trees to rising atmospheric CO2 are critical to understanding the future global carbon cycle.

Linking Aboveground Traits to Root Traits and Local Environment: Implications of the Plant Economics Spectrum. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The plant economics spectrum proposes that ecological traits are functionally coordinated and adapt along environmental gradients. However, empirical evidence is mixed about whether aboveground and root traits are consistently linked and which ...

Trade-offs Between Water Transport Capacity and Drought Resistance in Neotropical Canopy Liana and Tree Species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In tropical forest canopies, it is critical for upper shoots to efficiently provide water to leaves for physiological function while safely preventing loss of hydraulic conductivity due to cavitation during periods of soil water deficit or high ...

Simple Plant Traits Explain Functional Group Diversity Decline in Novel Grassland Communities of Texas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Previous research has found that plant diversity declines more quickly in exotic than native grassland plots, which offers a model system for testing whether diversity decline is associated with specific plant traits. In a common garden experiment in the

Elevated atmospheric CO2 concentration improves water use efficiency and growth of a widespread Cerrado tree species even under soil water deficit

open access: yesActa Botânica Brasílica
Changes in atmospheric CO2 levels are accompanied by ecological interactions involving other environmental factors, such as drought, which can severely alter the water balance of plants, thereby influencing sap flow, gas exchange, and plant growth.
