Plant biologists are facing pressure to breed plants that can respond to changing environments. One method of monitoring the response of plants to different environments is by studying their vein ...
The Mathematical Treatment of Leaf Venation: the Variation in Secondary Vein Length along the Midrib
Annals of Botany, Vol. 93, No. 2 (February 2004), pp. 149-156 (8 pages) • Background and Aims In some dicotyledonous leaves and leaflets, the secondary veins run more-or-less straight to the margins ...

• Leaf vein network geometry can predict levels of resource transport, defence and mechanical support that operate at different spatial scales. However, it is challenging to quantify network ...
Evolution of the angiosperm leaf is traced through venation patterns by comparing those of living plants from the countries which formed Gondwanaland with the fossil record.
