Shifts in plant functional strategies over the course of wheat domestication (2018, background): “Domestication may thus have increased metabolic rates and nutrient content in the leaves at the expense of structural defence and longer leaf life span (Kikuzawa & Lechowicz, 2011).”
Mechanisms underlying global temperature-related patterns in leaf longevity (2013, background): “For example, there was a broad positive correlation between photosynthetic rate (a) and respiration rate (m), and between construction cost (C) and potential LL (b); and a negative correlation between a and b (as reported by Kitajima et al., 1997; Kikuzawa & Lechowicz, 2006, 2011).”
