Abstract: The measurements of chlorophyll fluorescence play an important role in studies of lichen physiology. Usually, for foliose lichens fluorescence kinetics is recorded from the upper thalline side often exhibiting green color reflecting the presence of… read more here.

Abstract: Leaf trichomes on the lower leaf surface are common in many plant species, especially those grown under dry and/or low-temperature conditions; however, their adaptive significance remains unclear. Lower-side leaf trichomes can directly decrease gas fluxes… read more here.
