Characterizing sclerophylly : the mechanical properties of a diverse range of leaf types
• Although sclerophylly is defined by textural properties, its adaptive significance has been debated without a strong base of mechanical data. We measured a wide range of mechanical properties across a diverse range of species and leaf forms, including highly scleromorphic leaves, and compared the...
