Expanding our understanding of leaf functional syndromes in savanna systems: the role of plant growth form
(2017-04-01)
The assessment of leaf strategies has been a common theme in ecology, especially where multiple sources of environmental constraints (fire, seasonal drought, nutrient-poor soils) impose a strong selection pressure towards ...
Leaf ecology of pre-reproductive ontogenetic stages of the palm tree Euterpe edulis Mart. (Arecaceae)
(Academic Press LtdLondonInglaterra, 1999)
Leaf trait variation on Erythroxylum tortuosum (Erythroxylaceae) and its relationship with oviposition preference and stress by a host-specific leaf miner
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2011-04-01)
It has been suggested that plant physical and chemical traits vary considerably in space and time. Hence, leaf-mining insects may adjust their oviposition in response to leaf attributes representing high quality. Moreover, ...

Leaf senescence and the profile of expanded leaf area in maize (Zea mays L.)
(University of Guelph, 2002-08)
Leaf senescence is a major factor affecting light interception and dry matter accumulation during the grain-filling period. Reduced leaf senescence has been associated with maize yield genetic improvement. The objectives ...
Bacterial leaf glands in Styrax camporum (Styracaceae): first report for the family
(Canadian Science Publishing, Nrc Research Press, 2014-05-01)
In this study, we recorded, for the first time, the occurrence of leaf glands in a member of Styracaceae and their association with bacteria. Samples of Styrax camporum Pohl shoot apices and leaves at different developmental ...
The index of symmetry of compact naturally reductive spaces
(2014)
We introduce a geometric invariant that we call the index of symmetry, which measures how far is a Riemannian manifold from being a symmetric space. We compute, in a geometric way, the index of symmetry of compact naturally ...
Effects of row spacing and intercrop on maize grain yield and forage production of palisade grass
(CSIRO Publishing, 2012-01-01)
Intercropping of maize (Zea mays L.) with perennial forage, such as palisade grass [ Brachiaria brizantha (Hochst. ex A. Rich) Stapf], provides large amounts of biomass that can be used as straw for no-tillage systems or ...
