Water use, leaf cooling and carbon assimilation efficiency of heat resistant common beans evaluated in western Amazonia
(2021)
In our study, we analyzed 30years of climatological data revealing the bean production risks for Western Amazonia. Climatological profiling showed high daytime and nighttime temperatures combined with high relative humidity ...
Non-destructive estimation of the leaf weight and leaf area in common bean
(MDPI, 2022)
Regression models to predict leaf area and leaf weight in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) were fitted using the three leaflets of the leaves. A total of 1504 leaves from 40 genotypes were collected, covering a large range ...

Analyze the impact of livelihood strategies on self-sufficiency conditions in 162 rural households in the department of Huila, Colombia. Discuss: A. food source; B. composition of home gardens; C. push and pull factors ...
Higher leaf nitrogen content is linked to tighter stomatal regulation of transpiration and more efficient water use across dryland trees
(New Phytologist Foundation, 2022-05)
The least-cost economic theory of photosynthesis shows that water and nitrogen are mutually substitutable resources to achieve a given carbon gain. However, vegetation in the Sahel has to cope with the dual challenge imposed ...
The global spectrum of plant form and function enhanced species-level trait dataset
(Scientific Data, 2022)
Here we provide the ‘Global Spectrum of Plant Form and Function Dataset’, containing species mean values for six vascular plant traits. Together, these traits –plant height, stem specific density, leaf area, leaf mass per ...
Timber growth, cacao yields, and financial revenues in a long-term experiment of cacao agroforestry systems in northern Honduras
(Frontiers, 2022)
We assessed 36 cacao plots made up of 15–35 useful timber shade trees with varying spacing 6 × 9, 9 × 9, 8 × 10, and 10 × 12m. Initially, each plot consisted of three shade components plus cacao. Plantain (Musa x paradisiaca) ...
