Effects of Light and Nutrients on Leaf Size, CO2 Exchange, and Anatomy in Wild Strawberry (Fragaria virginiana)

Abstract: Plants of a single geDotype of wild strawberry, Fragaria virgnuiana Duchesne, were grown with or without fertilizer in high (406 microeinsteins per square meter per second) and low (80 microeinsteins per square meter per second) light. High-light leaves were thicker than low-Ht leaves and had greater development of the mesophyll. Within a ight level, highnutrient leaves were thicker, but the proportions of leaf tissues did not change with nutrient level. Maximum net CO2 exchange rate and leaf size were greates… Show more

“…In wild strawberry (F. virginiana), expanded leaf area was observed under high light intensity (Jurik et al, 1982). As the growing point of strawberry is covered by leaves, leaf position may affect the light interception of new leaves.…”

“…Such xeromorphic plasticity in response to variations in the availability of light, water and nutrients is well established (e.g. Givnish, 1978;Jurik, Chabot & Chabot, 1982;Field & Mooney, 1983), though their synergistic interactions have rarely been explored. This increase in sclerophylly was associated with a decrease in water potential and RWC at turgor loss point and of osmotic potential at full turgor, and an increase in bulk elastic modulus and overall water-use efficiency, all characteristic of plants adapted to tolerate extreme water stress (Turner, 1986).…”

“…in general, when located in unshaded areas, under high light intensity, leaves show greater toughness and trichome density. moreover, plants under light stress can change nutrient contents in their leaves (mattson, 1980;Jurik et al, 1982), as well as activate secondary metabolite synthesis such as coumarins (berenbaum, 1991) and anthocyanins (skaltsa et al, 1994). anthocyanins are broadly found on angiosperm leaves and flowers, where they act in photoprotection (gould et al, 1995; lee & collins, 2001; lee & gould, 2002; steyn et al, 2002).…”
