Physiological Ecology of North American Desert Plants: with ...
(Redrawn from Mooney and Ehleringer 1978) Lupinus is a winter annual that
exhibits diaheliotropism (Wainright 1977; Fig. 71), but it differs from Malvastrum in
that it can switch to paraheliotro- pism (leaf lamina parallel to the sun's direct rays
) ...

is due to diaheliotropism is to be considered, for we know that photo-epinasty is
not affected by the direction of the incident light. The most marked plagiotropic
effect will be produced when photo-epinasty and diaheliotropism co-operate, and

This sun-tracking movement with diaphototropic leaf orientation is called
diaheliotropism.3 The leaf diaheliotropism is observed in many arid land plants
that must grow within a short rainy season [33]. This phototropism has been
extensively ...

Charles Darwin's Collection (18 Books):
The position which leavesand cotyledons occupy duringthe day, namely, more or
less transversely to the direction ofthe light, is due, accordingto Frank, to what
wecall diaheliotropism. As all leaves andcotyledons are continually
circumnutating ...

The Power of Movement in Plants
In the ease of diaheliotropism, cotyledons and leaves place themselves so that
their upper surfaces may be exposed to the light, and this movement is regulated,
though not directly caused, by the direction whence the light proceeds. In both ...

Plant Tropisms: And Other Growth Movements
In leaves, such movements can fulfil different functions, or confer different types of
adaptive advantage, depending on the species and its situation (see Prichard &
Forseth 1988). In diaheliotropism, the leaf lamina is maintained at right angles ...
It differs in several aspects from the growth-mediated diaheliotropism of young,
actively growing shoot organs previously described. All such leaves are
equipped with at least one pulvinus, a specialized structure strategically situated
at the ...

Antioxidants and Reactive Oxygen Species in Plants
After rainfall, some desert plants practice diaheliotropism, or sun-tracking, in
order to maximize light interception at a time when readily available water allows
for high rates of photosynthetic CO2 assimilation (Ehleringer & Forseth, 1980).
