How water availability influences morphological and biomechanical properties in the one-leaf plant Monophyllaea horsfieldii

In its natural habitat, the one-leaf plant Monophyllaea horsfieldii (Gesneriaceae) shows striking postural changes and dramatic loss of stability in response to intermittently occurring droughts. As the morphological, anatomical and biomechanical bases of these alterations are as yet unclear, we exa...
