6 lis 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.
3 paź 2024 · Here, we observed that short-term (3 d) N deficiency caused a significantly smaller angle in the second leaf from the bottom of maize seedlings compared with those grown with sufficient N. Notably, this phenotype appeared well before chlorosis appeared.
18 lis 2008 · I've heard about people machining up wedges to sit between the axle and springs to correct prop angle problems. What I've thought about doing to mine is to make extension brackets which bolt on to the existing spring hangers so that the front ends of the springs are in the same place as they would be on a 1 ton chassis.
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.
20 kwi 2023 · New techniques to measure leaf angles are emerging, opening opportunities to understand the rarely‐measured intraspecific, interspecific, seasonal and interannual variations of leaf...
3 lut 2022 · Leaf angle is an important plant architecture trait, affecting plant density, light interception efficiency, photosynthetic rate, and yield. The “smart canopy” model proposes more vertical leaves in the top plant layers and more horizontal leaves in the lower canopy, maximizing conversion efficiency and photosynthesis.
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.
