Light interception and radiation use efficiency response to narrow-wide row planting patterns in maize (2012, background): “In growing canopies, foliar traits (such as leaf area index and leaf mass per unit area) are the important factors in leaf lightharvesting capacity and photosynthetic potentials (Niinemets and Sack, 2006).”
Photorespiration (2017, background): “nitrate as well as anoxia for example [31, 33, 34].”
Tree Size- and Age-Related Changes in Leaf Physiology and Their Influence on Carbon Gain (2011, background): “Worldwide, there is a strong positive correlation between A/g m and M A , suggesting that mesophyll diffusion limits photosynthesis more in leaves with more robust structure (Niinemets and Sack 2006; Niinemets et al. 2009).”
Leaf chlorophyll content as a proxy for leaf photosynthetic capacity (2017, background): “Lower SLA values can result in a lower leaf photosynthetic potential per area dry mass, but are compensated by increased leaf structural strength (Niinemets & Sack, 2006).”
Comprehending crystalline β-carotene accumulation by comparing engineered cell models and the natural carotenoid-rich system of citrus (2011, unknown): “CO2 diffusion across the mesophyll is particularly slow in structurally robust leaves, (Niinemets and Sack, 2006; Flexas et al., 2008; Niinemets et al., 2009c, 2011).”
Ecology of Leaf Longevity (2011, background): “…of full photosynthetic function would be the most logical starting point from which to estimate leaf longevity, but this is not practical in broad comparative studies because of species-specific variation in the relation between foliar development and foliar function (Niinemets and Sack 2004).”
Superior performance and nutrient-use efficiency of invasive plants over non-invasive congeners in a resource-limited environment (2011, background): “Low leaf density may have a salutary effect on growth rate because dense leaves present more of an internal barrier to the diffusion of CO2 or the penetration of light to chloroplasts, or because the construction cost of such a leaf is higher (Niinemets and Sack 2006).”
Leaf hydraulics. (2006, background): “Certain leaf traits show a disproportionate number of linkages with other traits (86).”
Leaf Trait Diversification and Design in Seven Rare Taxa of the Hawaiian Plantago Radiation (2009, background): “…be correlated with leaf area as a result of strong structural, allometric, developmental, and/ or functional linkages, including other leaf dimensions, LMA, vein density, and stomatal density (Edwards 2006; Niinemets and Sack 2006; Sack and Holbrook 2006; Milla and Reich 2007; Niklas et al. 2007).”
