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 · 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.
3 paź 2024 · 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. Here, we report that N deficiency enhanced lignin deposition in the ligular region of maize seedlings.
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 · 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).
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).
16 mar 2007 · Leaf angle distribution is one of the key parameters to simulate radiative transfer and energy and mass balance of vegetative canopies. Five leaf angle distributions functions have been proposed to account for the non-random distribution of leaf inclination angle.
