18 kwi 2013 · In angiosperms, leaf venation develops according to a typical algorithm, and shows strong and predictable plasticity and adaptation across environments, resulting in global trends in vein traits across growth forms, habitats and biomes.

18 kwi 2013 · We synthesize classical concepts and the recent literature on a wide range of aspects of leaf venation. We describe 10 major structural features that contribute to multiple key functions, and scale up to leaf and plant performance.
1 maj 2001 · One basic function of leaf venation is represented by its contribution to the mechanical behaviour of a leaf. Venation geometry and density influences mechanical stability and may affect, for example, susceptibility to herbivory.
a grid-like ‘striate’ venation is typical, including several orders of longitudinal veins of different sizes, with small transverse veins connecting them (Ueno etal., 2006).
5 maj 2022 · Our results showed an extremely strong and consistent scaling relationship of leaf venation architecture with leaf size across species with different leaf habits (evergreen and deciduous) and leaf vein types (palmate-veined and pinnate-veined) within a community.
1 maj 2001 · In this review we summarize current knowledge of interrelationships between the form and function of leaf venation and the evolution of leaf venation patterns.
The leaves of extant terrestrial plants show highly diverse and elaborate patterns of leaf venation. One fundamental feature of many leaf venation patterns, especially in the case of angiosperm leaves, is the presence of anastomoses.
