Type in a word or phrase to search, you can also type in Article ID's separated by commas:

In botany, a leaf is an above-ground plant organ specialized for photosynthesis. For this purpose, a leaf is typically flat (laminar) and thin. There is continued debate about whether the flatness of leaves evolved to expose the chloroplasts to more light or to increase the absorption of carbon dioxide. In either case, the adaption was made at the expense of water loss. In the Devonian period, when carbon dioxide concentration was at several times its present value, plants did not have leaves or flat stems. Many bryophytes have flat, photosynthetic organs, but these are not true leaves. Neither are the microphylls of lycophytes. The leaves of ferns, gymnosperms, and angiosperms are variously referred to as macrophyll, megaphylls, or euphylls.

Leaves are also the sites in most plants where transpiration and guttation take place. Leaves can store food and water, and are modified in some plants for other purposes. The comparable structures of ferns are correctly referred to as fronds. Furthermore, leaves are prominent in the human diet as leaf vegetables.

A structurally complete leaf of an angiosperm consists of a petiole (leaf stem), a lamina (leaf blade), and stipules (small processes located to either side of the base of the petiole). The petiole attaches to the stem at a point called the "leaf axil." Not every species produces leaves with all of the aforementioned structural components. In some species, paired stipules are not obvious or are absent altogether. A petiole may be absent, or the blade may not be laminar (flattened). The tremendous variety shown in leaf structure (anatomy) from species to species is presented in detail below under Leaf morphology. After a period of time (i.e. seasonally, during the autumn), deciduous trees shed their leaves. These leaves then decompose into the soil.

A leaf is considered a plant organ and typically consists of the following tissues

3. Using Fibonacci Charts For Forex Trading
November 19, 2009

The Fibonacci chart method used for forex trading or other monetary trading depends on an arithmetic progression invented by Leonardo Fibonacci of Pisa, Italy, in the 13th century. He showed that if you create a succession of numbers by continuously adding together the last two figures together, i.e. 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34 and so on, the ratios connecting the numbers stick to certain interesting patterns which are often reflected in the physical world.

10. Fantastic foliar feeding formula
November 16, 2009

Foliar (or leaf) feeding is one of the most efficient way to fertilize your garden. When you apply fertilizer to the soil, the roots may take up as little as 10 percent of the nutrients, but when fertilizer is applied to the leaves, 90 percent of the material is absorbed. I regularly foliar-feed all of the nursery stock, as well as the plants in my home landscape. This formula includes fish emulsion for nitrogen and seaweed for trace minerals, growth stimulants, and plant hormones. One of my secret ingredients is blackstrap molasses, which contains iron and sulfur as well as simple sug... (read more)
