Elucidating the genetic basis of morphological changes in evolution remains a major challenge in biology. Repeated independent trait changes are of particular interest because they can indicate adaptation in different lineages or genetic and developmental constraints on generating morphological variation. In animals, changes to "hot spot" genes with minimal pleiotropy and large phenotypic effec...

an experiment was conducted to determine the effect of paclobutrazol (pbz) and different irrigation amount on growth of aerial parts, leaf minerals and root performance in young olive plants cv. ‘manzanillo’ in the department of horticulture, faculty of agriculture, tarbiat modarres university in 2000. a split plot experiment in time was used based on a completely randomized block design with f...

Abstract. Nurlela, Nurfalah R, Ananda F, Ridwan T, Ilmiawati A, Nurcholis W, Takemori H, Batubara I. 2022. Variation of morphological characteristics, total phenolic, and flavonoid in Adenostemma lavenia, A. madurense, platyphyllum. Biodiversitas 23: 3999-4005. has long been used as a herbal medication. Despite some studies regarding the morphology potency carried out, variation traits, phenoli...

A leaf is an organ of vascular plant and is the principal lateral appendage of the stem. Each leaf has a set of features that differentiate it from the other leaves, such as margin and shape. This paper proposes a comparison of supervised plant leaves classification using different approaches, based on different representations of these leaves, and the chosen algorithm. Beginning with the repre...

The gravitational component of water potential and frictional resistance during transpiration lead to substantial reductions in leaf water potential (Psi(l)) near the tops of tall trees, which can influence both leaf growth and physiology. We examined the relationships between morphological features and gas exchange in foliage collected near the tops of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb....

background and objectives: rice plant requires abundant water during its growth cycle and usually faced with water deficit. drought  stress alters the allocation assimilate , root and shoot growth during the vegetative period and also lower tillering, death tillers, lower plant height and flowering delay. the aim of this study was to screen different iranian genotypes and some lines from irri w...
