16 gru 2017 · Leaf angle is defined as the inclination between the midrib of the leaf blade and the vertical stem of a plant. This trait has been identified as a key component in the development of high-yielding varieties of cereal species, particularly maize, rice, wheat, and sorghum.
Leaf angle (LA) is a key trait of plant architecture and a target for genetic improvement of crops. Upright leaves allow better light capture in canopy under high-density planting, thus enhancing photosynthesis efficiency, ventilation and stress resistance, and ultimately higher grain yield.
6 lis 2017 · Leaf angle, defined as the inclination between the leaf blade midrib and the stem, is one of the most important canopy architecture parameters that influence light interception, photosynthetic efficiency, and planting density.
20 kwi 2023 · Leaf angle, the angle between the leaf normal and the zenith (Figure 1, Box 1), is a key leaf trait associated with light interception, photosynthesis, energy balance and competition among individual plants (Anten, 2005; Nilsen & Forseth, 2018; Ross, 1980).
20 kwi 2023 · Diagram of leaf and solar angles. θl is the leaf inclination angle from horizontal, equivalent to the angle between the leaf normal and the zenith (the green arrow is the leaf normal); θs is the...
20 kwi 2023 · Using two models, we show that leaf angle variations have significant impacts on not only canopy-scale photosynthesis, energy balance and water use efficiency but also light competition within the forest canopy.
1 lut 2019 · For individual leaves, leaf angle consists of leaf inclination angle and leaf azimuth angle. For the whole canopy, leaf angle distribution (LAD) is used to describe the probability of all leaves orientating at different directions.
