The hydraulic resistance of the leaf (R₁) is a major bottleneck in the whole plant water transport pathway and may thus be linked with the enormous variation in leaf structure and function among ...

Interest in the structure and function of physical biological networks has spurred the development of a number of theoretical models that predict optimal network structures across a broad array of ...

Short-stature corn is often planted at higher populations because its architecture allows for better light interception and ...

Published in the journal Plant Pathology, the study used advanced microscopy to trace how the BLD-causing nematode, Litylenchus crenatae subsp. mccannii, alters leaf structure and function in ...

Failing to understand leaf structure and ear types can be costly. In my experience, if you use a flex-ear hybrid in a pendulum-leaf format, high populations will cause the hybrid to flex the ...

A new study sheds light on the interaction between plant leaves and microbial communities by analyzing how leaf metabolites ...
