Abstract

Leaves play a vital role in the growth, development and productivity of woody plants in a forest ecosystem. The present paper deals first with a concise review of research advances undertaken globally on leaf traits of trees and shrubs and then a brief synthesis of results of leaf traits in Linares, Northeastern Mexico. A synthesis is made on research advances on leaf traits, leaf morphology and eco-physiology of trees and shrubs at the global levels and few studies in Northeastern Mexico. There exists a large variability in various leaf morphological traits viz. leaf dimensions and eco-physiological traits viz. leaf area, leaf specific area, leaf dry weight etc. The magnitudes of these traits vary depending on environmental conditions.

墨西哥东北部木本植物叶片性状的生物多样性综述

在森林生态系统中，叶片对木本植物的生长发育和生产力起着至关重要的作用。本文首先简要回顾了全球乔灌木叶片性状的研究进展，然后简要综合了墨西哥东北部利纳雷斯地区叶片性状的研究结果。综述了全球乔灌木叶片性状、形态和生理生态方面的研究进展，以及墨西哥东北部的研究情况。叶片的各种形态性状(叶尺寸)和生态生理性状(叶面积、叶比、叶干重等)均存在较大的变异。这些特征的大小取决于环境条件。
