A latitudinal cline in leaf inclination of Dryas octopetala and implications for maximization of whole plant photosynthesis
Mean leaf inclination of the arctic and alpine shrub Dryas octopetala is a function of latitude and this functional relationship is consistent with a model that maximizes photosynthesis of the total plant canopy.
