The genetic control of leaf allometry in the common bean, Phaseolus vulgaris

Abstract Background To maximize photosynthetic efficiency, plants have evolved a capacity by which leaf area scales allometrically with leaf mass through interactions with the environment. However, our understanding of genetic control of this allometric relationship remains limited. Results We integ...
