25 sty 2022 · 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 · This newly proposed ‘smart canopy’ ideotype, with differential leaf angles at different plant levels, unravels new knowledge gaps to develop superior germplasm effectively and generates new questions about the genetic control of leaf angle.
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.
20 kwi 2023 · We review the role of leaf angle in studies of ecophysiology, ecosystem ecology and earth system science, and highlight the essential yet understudied role of leaf angle as an ecological strategy to regulate plant carbon–water–energy nexus and to bridge leaf, canopy and earth system processes.
25 mar 2015 · The leaf angle (LA) was scored as the angle of each leaf from a plane defined by the stalk below the node subtending the leaf. The leaf length (LL) was measured as the length from the base of the ligula to tip of the leaf.
Abstract. Leaf angle is an important agronomic trait determining maize (Zea mays) planting density and light penetration into the canopy and contributes to the yield gain in modern maize hybrids.However, little is known about the molecular mechanisms underlying leaf angle beyond the ZmLG1 (liguleless1) and ZmLG2 (Liguleless2) genes.In this study, we found that the transcription factor (TF ...
15 sie 2023 · In this short communication, we explore the potential of machine learning to remove the current bottleneck (manual operation/leaf identification) in estimating leaf angle distribution type, which does not require the acquisition of expensive equipment (e.g. terrestrial laser scanner).
