A geometrical model for testing bilateral symmetry of bamboo leaf with a simplified Gielis equation

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 6, Issue 19, Page 6798-6806, October 2016., 2016
A simplified Gielis model is used to describe bamboo leaf shapes. Leave shapes of 42 bamboo species exhibit a perfect bilateral symmetry. Abstract The size and shape of plant leaves change with growth, and an accurate description of leaf shape is crucial for describing plant morphogenesis and development.
