Effect of expansion time and sunlight radiation on the functional and anatomical traits of mango tree leaves

Revista Agrogeoambiental, 2018
The mango tree (Mangifera indica L.) is cultivated on a large scale in Brazil for economic purposes. Since the leaves, as the main photosynthetic organs, play an essential role in fruit production, the primary objective of the present study was to ...

Environmental and developmental controls on specific leaf area are little modified by leaf allometry [PDF]

Functional Ecology, 2008
Summary 1. Recent work shows that large leaves tend to require higher biomass investments per unit leaf area than small leaves. As a consequence, specific leaf area (SLA), which is a focus trait for a bulk of physiological and ecological research programs, is dependent on leaf size variation.

Biomass Allocation and Leaf Morphology of Saplings Grown under Various Conditions of Light Availability and Competition Types

Plants, 2022
Plant growth is almost always limited by light availability and competition. However, plants are generally plastic and can change their morphology and biomass allocation to optimize growth under suboptimal conditions.

Leaf dry matter content is better at predicting above-ground net primary production than specific leaf area [PDF]

, 2017
1. Reliable modelling of above-ground Net Primary Production (aNPP) at fine resolution is a significant challenge. A promising avenue for improving process models is to include response and effect trait relationships.
