Characterizing the leaf size / number trade-off at different scales
A novel interpretation of leaf mass variation in plants has been recently proposed based on its relationship with variation in leafing intensity – number of leaves produced per unit remaining above-ground dry mass. It is now widely established that between species variation in these two traits is st...
