• Trade-offs in interspecific comparisons in plant ecology and how plants overcome proposed constraints (2016, background): “25 × N), and 5–6 mg g for the perennial herb Polygonum cuspidatum (Onoda et al. 2004).”
• Superior performance and nutrient-use efficiency of invasive plants over non-invasive congeners in a resource-limited environment (2011, background): “A number of studies have found higher PNUE associated with greater investment of N in the photosynthetic apparatus or lower allocation to cell-wall structural proteins (Hikosaka et al. 1998; Ripullone et al. 2003; Westbeek et al. 1999; Onoda et al. 2004; Takashima et al. 2004).”
• Spatial patterns of leaf nutrient traits of the plants in the Loess Plateau of China (2007, background): “However, they have a longer leaf life span and a long mean residence time of nitrogen in leaves, which are probably advantageous at low nutrient availabilities (Takashima et al. 2004; Onoda et al. 2004).”
• The biology of invasive alien plants in Canada. 5. Polygonum cuspidatum Sieb. & Zucc. [=Fallopia japonica (Houtt.) Ronse Decr.]. (2006, background): “Onoda et al. (2004) found that greenhouse grown P. cuspidatum seedlings that germinate early in the season allocate proportionally more nitrogen to cell walls than do late germinators, which use their nitrogen for building photosynthetic machinery.”
• Mechanisms underlying global temperature-related patterns in leaf longevity (2013, background): “photosynthetic enzymes at colder sites in order to achieve higher photosynthetic rates, or perhaps that more photosynthetic enzyme is required to achieve a given photosynthetic rate at colder sites or sites with only very short growing seasons (Kudo et al., 2001; Onoda et al., 2004).”
• Root respiration in temperate mountain grasslands differing in land use (2006, background): “A possible explanation for reduced rates of photosynthesis or respiration per unit N could be that at sites with lower nutrient availability species invest proportionally more N towards storage and structural compounds and less towards their metabolic processes (Onoda et al., 2004), which decreases ”
• Physiological and structural tradeoffs underlying the leaf economics spectrum. (2017, methodology): “While the importance of cell walls in the variation of photosynthetic rates has been suggested elsewhere (Rackham, 1966; Lambers & Poorter, 1992; Hikosaka et al., 1998; Onoda et al., 2004; Terashima et al., 2006), the hypothesis has not been tested widely because of a general lack of data.”
