2 paź 2024 · We show that leaf angle dynamics systematically confound widely applied vegetation indices. Moreover, we demonstrate that these effects are not random but tightly linked to abiotic...
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.
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.
15 sie 2022 · Leaf angles (i.e., leaf inclination relative to the horizontal) were collected for a large number of leaves from both sunlit and shaded crowns using ladders, mobile elevators, scaffolding towers or cameras mounted on UAVs for canopy access. Measurements were conducted only in windless conditions.
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:
Observations of leaf orientation showed that the leaves of most species are slanted, some to nearly vertical, in full sun and are more nearly horizontal in the shade. Although no preferential orientation for compass direction was observed, these responses may be useful.
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 ...
