Stable stomatal number per minor vein length indicates the coordination between leaf water supply and demand in three leguminous species
Abstract The coordination between minor vein density (MVD) and stomatal density (SD) has been found in many plants. However, we still know little about the influence of leaf node on this correlation relationship. Here, we devised the new functional trait ‘stomatal number per minor vein length’ (SV)....
