Because plants are unable to move away from unfavourable habitats and environmental
perturbations, leaf phenotypic plasticity facilitates light absorption and gas exchange. Oaks …

A combined genetic and morphometric approach was used to study leaf shape and size
variability among three sympatric and interfertile white oak species (Quercus frainetto …

Leaf characters of populations of the aquatic macrophyte Montrichardia linifera were studied
using geometric morphometrics to compare variation with traditional circumscriptions of the …

In this paper, elliptical Fourier descriptors (EFDs) were used to study leaf shape variability as
a “size‐free” attribute of three sympatric and inter‐fertile white oak species (Quercus …

(1) Background: local morphological variation can provide useful information to clarify the
role of hybridization in Mediterranean oaks. Accordingly, we have characterized putative …

Premise Microclimatic differences between the periphery and the interior of tree crowns
result in a variety of adaptive leaf macromorphological and anatomical features. Our …

Mexico is a major center of evolutionary radiation for the genus Quercus, with oak species
occurring across different habitat types and showing a wide variation in morphology and …

Las hojas de Magnolia cubensis presentan variaciones de forma que en ocasiones
dificultan la identificación a nivel de subespecies. Una de las soluciones emergentes ante …

Combined multiple 2D views (proximal, anterior and ventral aspects) of the sagittal otolith
are proposed here as a method to capture shape information for fish classification …
