The method allows accurate field identification and quantification of maize pollen on plant leaf surfaces.
It can be assumed that nitrate reducing plant leaf provides nitrate reductase enzyme (protein).
Increasing density reduced plant leaf area but effects were comparatively small.
The proposed blade having the plant leaf structure can show reversible bend-twist coupling (BTC).
There were significant differences in maximum plant leaf area between cultivars.
Our results showed that the model appropriately described the plant leaf area even for torn leaves.
The experiment was examined twice daily, and plant leaf discs were replaced by fresh ones when necessary.
Multidimensional HRMAS together with CPMAS was applied to characterize cutin, an insoluble component of plant leaf and fruit cuticles.
