Temporal and spatial responses of the branch and leaf growth relationship to human water flow regulation: a case study on remnant Myricaria laxiflora populations

Regulation of water flow by dams for flood control and power generation has changed the patterns of water level fluctuation in the lower Yangtze River. By investigating the branch and leaf traits of M. laxiflora plants at various growth recovery stages along the water fluctuation gradient, this stud...
