One of the properties of canopy architecture is leaf shape, and its effect on solar radiation* G4 @/ o* J1 w, Y2 D9 ?" k: E5 t5 P
interception by a plant is little understood and studied. Consequently, this study was to evaluate3 U- h- L- m5 `0 q$ e7 ~
the effect of six leaf shapes on both direct and diffuse solar radiation interception using a $ T: @ H* w4 s" \3 l+ p; |detailed 3-D solar radiation model. Six hypothetical plant prototypes were computer-generated- @ v' ^' O/ T1 Q8 @" e
10 so that each prototype was equal to each other in all aspects; only the leaf shape for each 7 L7 z4 ^; l, D, t' Hprototype was varied. The leaf shapes selected were round (RD), square (SQ), triangle (TR), 1 `- ]0 a. S; u" l* @3 Xinverted triangle (ITR), ellipse (EL) and lobe (LB). Computer simulations revealed that leaf- K5 l- U& F4 u" e& u! I1 M$ e

was to a rather small extent of not more than 11% increase in solar radiation interception. The4 v( e" s% g, O& P* g6 |: ^

Although leaf lobbing is often hypothesised to 5 o( y! ?3 v }+ E* Vproduce deeper sunflecks within the canopy, this study however revealed that leaf lobbing per - w" @/ e6 G+ H# F% Ose had no effect on solar radiation interception. All properties being equal, solar radiation/ D" u' g7 L, A* e" E! X; Z7 D
interception could be increased by having leaf shapes that are: 1) long and narrow, 2) broader at1 t5 F& L8 L) k/ j

However, the effect of leaf 9 m0 W N2 `1 Qshape on solar radiation interception decreases for near or full canopy cover because at this . |4 e0 r! m0 d" Mstage, the canopy is already intercepting solar radiation at near maximum capacity.
