Venation networks and the origin of the leaf economics spectrum
Benjamin Blonder,Cyrille Violle,Cyrille Violle,Lisa Patrick Bentley,Brian J. Enquist,Brian J. Enquist +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a comprehensive framework for the origin of this leaf economics spectrum based on venation-mediated economic strategies, and showed that selection to optimize the venation network predicts the mean global trait-trait scaling relationships across 2548 species.

Timothy R. Carlson,Yibing Yan,Xiaoqing Wu,Michael T. Lam,Gale L. Tang,Levi J. Beverly,Louis M. Messina,Anthony J. Capobianco,Zena Werb,Rong Wang +9 more
TL;DR: Gain-of-function evidence is provided that Notch signaling in the adult endothelium is sufficient to render arterial characteristics and lead to AVMs.

TL;DR: An MLA of 6 mm(2) or more is a safe value for deferring revascularization of the LMCA, given the application of the clinical and angiographic inclusion criteria used in this study.
PERSPECTIVE Venation networks and the origin of the leaf economics spectrum
TL;DR: A novel quantitative model is developed that shows that selection to optimize the venation network predicts the mean global trait-trait scaling relationships across 2548 species, and indicates that selection on venation geometry is a fundamental basis for understanding the diversity of leaf form and function, and the carbon balance of leaves.
