Climate and symbioses with ants modulate leaf/stem scaling in epiphytes
In most seed plants, leaf size is isometrically related to stem cross-sectional area, a relationship referred to as Corner’s rule. When stems or leaves acquire a new function, for instance in ant-plant species with hollow stems occupied by ants, their scaling is expected to change. Here we use a lin...
