Native environment modulates leaf size and response to simulated foliar shade across wild tomato species.

Native environment modulates leaf size and response to simulated foliar shade across wild tomato species.

The laminae of leaves optimize photosynthetic rates by serving as a platform for both light capture and gas exchange, while minimizing water losses associated with thermoregulation and transpiration. Many have speculated that plants maximize photosynthetic output and minimize associated costs throug...
