How do leaf veins influence the worldwide leaf economic spectrum? Review and synthesis.

• Lawren Sack, Christine Scoffoni, +4 authors Lisa A. Donovan
• Journal of experimental botany
• 2013

Leaf vein traits are implicated in the determination of gas exchange rates and plant performance. These traits are increasingly considered as causal factors affecting the 'leaf economic spectrum'… (More)

Leaf vein xylem conduit diameter influences susceptibility to embolism and hydraulic decline.

• Christine Scoffoni, Caetano Albuquerque, +6 authors Lawren Sack
• The New phytologist
• 2017

Ecosystems worldwide are facing increasingly severe and prolonged droughts during which hydraulic failure from drought-induced embolism can lead to organ or whole plant death. Understanding the… (More)

Allometry of cells and tissues within leaves.

• Grace P John, Christine Scoffoni, Lawren Sack
• American journal of botany
• 2013

UNLABELLED PREMISE OF THE STUDY Allometric relationships among the dimensions of leaf cells, cell walls, and tissues, and whole-leaf thickness and area are likely to have key implications for leaf… (More)

How Does Leaf Anatomy Influence Water Transport outside the Xylem?

• Thomas N Buckley, Grace P John, Christine Scoffoni, Lawren Sack
• Plant physiology
• 2015

Leaves are arguably the most complex and important physicobiological systems in the ecosphere. Yet, water transport outside the leaf xylem remains poorly understood, despite its impacts on stomatal… (More)

Outside-Xylem Vulnerability, Not Xylem Embolism, Controls Leaf Hydraulic Decline during Dehydration.

• Christine Scoffoni, Caetano Albuquerque, +6 authors Lawren Sack
• Plant physiology
• 2017

Leaf hydraulic supply is crucial to maintaining open stomata for CO2 capture and plant growth. During drought-induced dehydration, the leaf hydraulic conductance (Kleaf) declines, which contributes… (More)

How Does Leaf Anatomy In fl uence Water Transport outside the Xylem ? 1 [ OPEN ]

• Thomas N Buckley, Grace P John, Christine Scoffoni, Lawren Sack
• 2015

Leaves are arguably the most complex and important physicobiological systems in the ecosphere. Yet, water transport outside the leaf xylem remains poorly understood, despite its impacts on stomatal… (More)

The Sites of Evaporation within Leaves.

• Thomas N Buckley, Grace P John, Christine Scoffoni, Lawren Sack
• Plant physiology
• 2017

The sites of evaporation within leaves are unknown, but they have drawn attention for decades due to their perceived implications for many factors, including patterns of leaf isotopic enrichment, the… (More)

The anatomical and compositional basis of leaf mass per area.

• Grace P John, Christine Scoffoni, Thomas N Buckley, Rafael Villar, Hendrik Poorter, Lawren Sack
• Ecology letters
• 2017

Leaf dry mass per unit leaf area (LMA) is a central trait in ecology, but its anatomical and compositional basis has been unclear. An explicit mathematical and physical framework for quantifying the… (More)

Flowering phenology change and climate warming in southwestern Ohio

• Ryan Walker McEwan, Robert J. Brecha, Donald R. Geiger, Grace P John
• Plant Ecology
• 2010

Global surface temperature has increased markedly over the last 100 years. This increase has a variety of implications for human societies, and for ecological systems. One of the most obvious ways… (More)

Leaf mass per area is independent of vein length per area: avoiding pitfalls when modelling phenotypic integration (reply to Blonder et al. 2014)

• Lawren Sack, Christine Scoffoni, +4 authors Lisa A. Donovan
• Journal of experimental botany
• 2014

It has been recently proposed that leaf vein length per area (VLA) is the major determinant of leaf mass per area ( MA), and would thereby determine other traits of the leaf economic spectrum (LES),… (More)
