Higher up they hang like tangled webs from the uppermost branches.
Trees that are exposed to the wind will show a combing pattern in their uppermost branches.
It's doubtful he'll chain himself to its bark in defiance of bulldozers or pitch a tent in its uppermost branches, but Congressman Rodney Frelinghuysen, Republican of Morristown, is very serious about saving an old Dutch elm near Capitol Hill.
The single prop dips and weaves in the thermals as we approach the tree line, cutting the uppermost branches off a 200-year-old pine tree, and then hurtles towards the dusty runway.
Interestingly, the same relationship trend was observed among all three trees: spiddos of leaves from uppermost branches (A3, B3, and C3) were distinct from spiddos of other leaves.
Net photosynthesis (NP) and transpiration (E) rates were measured in the greenhouse between 10 00 and 11 30 using the uppermost branches of six seedlings (n = 6) per treatment after six months of the flooding treatment.
The degree of genome sequence difference (genomic distance) varied systematically from the bottom to the top of the plant, such that the greatest divergence was observed between leaf genomes from uppermost branches and the remainder of the tree.
Leaves short-petiolate; petiole 1 1.5 cm long, glabrous, exauriculate; blade narrowly elliptic or oblong-elliptic, 5 22 cm long, 2 5 cm broad, base narrowly cuneate, margin prominently mucronate-serrate, apex acute-acuminate, papery, both surfaces glabrous, pinnately veined, lateral veins 12 18, arcuate-ascending, somewhat prominent abaxially; uppermost and branch leaves obviously smaller.
The number of branches at the uppermost joint of all inoculated specimens was counted.
For both model trees, in the uppermost and rightmost areas of the branch length space, true synapomorphy accounts for less than 10% the probability of a character showing the synapomorphic pattern (i.e. Π ∕ y < 0.1).
