Excess of reduced iron (Fe 2+ ) will affect the plant growth rice when it is grown under waterlogged condition. Some genotypes have been identified tolerance to toxicity with different mechanism-type tolerance. This study aims identify response some toxicity, and evaluate their consistency in greenhouse screening method field The experiments were conducted hotspot area, Banyuasin (South Sumater...

Plant recognition is an important and challenging task. Leaf recognition plays an important role in plant recognition and its key issue lies in whether selected features are stable and have good ability to discriminate different kinds of leaves. From the view of plant leaf morphology (such as shape, dent, margin, vein and so on), domain–related visual features of plant leaf are analyzed and ext...

The development of plant leaves follows a common basic program that is flexible and is adjusted according to species, developmental stage and environmental circumstances. Leaves initiate from the flanks of the shoot apical meristem and develop into flat structures of variable sizes and forms. This process is regulated by plant hormones, transcriptional regulators and mechanical properties of th...

INTRODUCTION Plant leaves have a major role in the photosynthetic supply of nutrients, gas exchange, the distribution of nutrients and water transport (Tsukaya, 2006). To optimise these functions in different habitats, plants need to adapt leaf positioning, size and shape (Hasson et al., 2010; Nicotra et al., 2011). An important trait of leaf shape variation is the outline of the leaf margin, w...

Leaf shape diversity relies on transient morphogenetic activity in leaf margins. However, how this morphogenetic capacity is maintained is still poorly understood. Here, we uncover a role for the hormone cytokinin (CK) in the regulation of morphogenetic activity of compound leaves in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum). Manipulation of CK levels led to alterations in leaf complexity and revealed a un...

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 work 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 repres...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Bacterial leaf scorch occurring in a number of economically important plants is caused by the xylem-limited bacterium Xylella fastidiosa (Xf). In grapevine, Xf systemic infection causes Pierce's disease and is lethal. Traditional dogma is that Xf movement between vessels requires the digestion of inter-vessel pit membranes. However, Yersinia enterocolitica (Ye) (a bacterium ...

(Leaf damage in a mangrove swamp at Sepetiba Bay, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil). Leaf damage to Rhizophora mangle L., Avicennia schaueriana Stapf. & Leechman, and Laguncularia racemosa L. was studied in a two hectare mangrove swamp site in Sepetiba Bay. Seventeen arthropod morphospecies were identifi ed as being responsible for the damage, and their species diversity was highest on A. schaueriana, fo...
