3 paź 2024 · Abstract. In grain crops such as maize (Zea mays), leaf angle (LA) is a key agronomic trait affecting light interception and thus planting density and yield. Nitrogen (N) affects LA in plants, but we lack a good understanding of how N regulates LA.
4 cze 2012 · A functional–structural model, LIGNUM, was used to simulate individuals of different leaf area index (LAI ind) together with a genetic algorithm to find distributions of leaf angle (LA) and leaf photosynthetic capacity (Amax) that maximized net carbon gain at the whole-plant level.
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 plays a similar role as stomates at the leaf level: By adjusting stomatal conductance, a balance between carbon gain and water loss is achieved; by adjusting leaf angle, the plant canopy can achieve optimized carbon gain while reducing heat stress and water loss.
29 wrz 2010 · In the first part of this review we will discuss the functional consequences of leaf orientation for plant performance. Next, we will consider hyponastic growth and describe how exploitation of natural (genetic) variation can be instrumental in studying the relevance and control of leaf positioning. Keywords:
26 lut 2015 · Our approach includes a semi-automatic selection process of single leaves and different modes of surface characterization via polygon smoothing or surface model fitting. Based on the resulting surface meshes leaf angle statistics are computed on the whole-leaf level or from local derivations.
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.
