LAMINA: a tool for rapid quantification of leaf size and shape parameters
Max Bylesjö,Vincent Segura,Raju Y. Soolanayakanahally,Anne M. Rae,Johan Trygg,Petter Gustafsson,Stefan Jansson,Nathaniel R. Street +7 more
TL;DR: LAMINA (Leaf shApe deterMINAtion), a new tool for the automated analysis of images of leaves, is developed and it is shown that the software provides an efficient and accurate means of analysing leaf area in large datasets in an automated or semi-automated work flow.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diffusional conductances to CO2 as a target for increasing photosynthesis and photosynthetic water-use efficiency.
Jaume Flexas,Ülo Niinemets,Alexander Gallé,Alexander Gallé,Margaret M. Barbour,Mauro Centritto,Antonio Díaz-Espejo,Cyril Douthe,Jeroni Galmés,Miquel Ribas-Carbo,Pedro L. Rodriguez,Francesc Rosselló,Raju Y. Soolanayakanahally,Magdalena Tomás,Ian J. Wright,Graham D. Farquhar,Hipólito Medrano +16 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that the appropriate trait for selection for enhanced WUE is increased gm/gs, and it is concluded that for simultaneous improvement of AN and WUE, genetic manipulation of gm should avoid parallel changes in gs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Branching out: Agroforestry as a climate change mitigation and adaptation tool for agriculture
Michele Schoeneberger,Gary Bentrup,Henry de Gooijer,Raju Y. Soolanayakanahally,Thomas J. Sauer,James R. Brandle,Xinhua Zhou,Dean Current +7 more
TL;DR: The authors predicts future climate conditions for the US Midwest include longer growing seasons that could potentially increase crop yields but also increase heat waves, floods, droughts, and insect and weed issues that may then adversely impact production.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced assimilation rate and water use efficiency with latitude through increased photosynthetic capacity and internal conductance in balsam poplar (Populus balsamifera L.)
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined variation in height increment and ecophysiological traits in a range-wide collection of Populus balsamifera L. populations from 21 provenances, during unconstrained growth in a greenhouse.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recent Y chromosome divergence despite ancient origin of dioecy in poplars (Populus)

TL;DR: It is shown using whole-genome scans that the sex-associated region in Populus trichocarpa is small and much younger than the age of the genus, indicating that sex determination is highly labile in poplar, consistent with recent evidence of 'turnover' of sex-determination regions in animals.
