An Inherent Coordination between the Leaf Size and the Hydraulic Architecture of Angiosperm Trees
Leaf veins are the continuation of twigs, and the hydraulic system of a leaf is part of, and the continuation of, the hydraulic architecture of a tree. Previous studies have demonstrated that the vessel diameter of the widest part at the tree base is tightly related to the total stem length of a tre...
