John H. McClendon American Journal of Botany 1962. doi:10.2307/2439068
Other claims from this paper (5)
- Association Maximum photosynthetic rate per area was linearly related to leaf density thickness after accounting for epidermis thickness.
- Observation Fifteen species had R values over 23.
- Observation Very young leaves, aurea2 leaves and a few others had R values of 8–16.
- Observation Normal leaves had total density thickness from 10 to 40 × 10-3 g/cm2.
- Observation Normal leaves had photosynthetic rates from 0.2 to 0.8 (mg CO2) hr-1 cm-2.
