Specific Leaf Area and Photosynthesis of Apple Trees Under a Dynamic Agrivoltaic System
It has been assumed that crops cultivated in agrivoltaics (AV) systems can produce enough carbohydrates through the process of photosynthesis because they are expose to an excess of light. However, many studies have shown increases in specific leaf area

The Role of Plant Evolutionary History in Shaping the Variation in Specific Leaf Area Across China
Specific leaf area (SLA, leaf area per unit leaf dry mass) occupies a central position in both community assembly and ecosystem functioning. Although SLA has significant phylogenetic signals, how and to what extent the evolutionary history influences the

Growth of cape gooseberry (Physalis peruviana L.) plants affected by salinity
A greenhouse experiment was conducted to assess the effect of salt stress on the growth of the cape gooseberry. Sixty-seven-day-old cape gooseberry plants were surveyed in perlite pot cultures salinized with varying concentrations of NaCl, i.e.

Relationship between Leaf Traits and PM-Capturing Capacity of Major Urban-Greening Species
High concentrations of airborne particulate matter (PM) in urban areas are of great concern to human health. Urban greening has been shown to be an effective and eco-friendly way to alleviate particle pollution, and attention to its role in mitigating ...
