The effects of surface structure mutations in Arabidopsis thaliana on the polarization of reflections from virus-infected leaves.
The way in which light is polarized when reflected from leaves can be affected by infection with plant viruses. This has the potential to influence viral transmission by insect vectors due to altered visual attractiveness of infected plants. The optical and topological properties of cuticular waxes...
