• A trait-based approach to comparative functional plant ecology: concepts, methods and applications for agroecology. A review (2012, unknown): “, 2005) is indeed easier to measure and less prone to measurement errors than SLA since only masses have to be measured, is less variable than the latter among replicates (Wilson et al., 1999; Garnier et al., 2001a), and might be used when species from shaded habitats are involved in the comparisons”
• Causes and consequences of variation in leaf mass per area (LMA): a meta-analysis. (2009, background): “Higher LMAs for perennials have also been found in co-occurring grasses in the field (Garnier et al., 1997; Li et al., 2005).”
• Effects of shade on growth, production and quality of coffee (COFFEA ARABICA) in Ethiopia (2011, background): “Plants having higher SLA exhibit higher productivity (Li et al., 2005) and have higher potential relative growth rate than those having lower SLA (Poorter and Werf, 1998).”
