Figure 5

Illustration of a leaf data extraction. (a) shows the leaf sagittal and coronal planes, and the points Si,1, Si,2, Ci,1, Ci,2which are used to compute the leaf width and length, (b) shows, in blue, the projection (onto the coronal plane) of the line fitted to the shape of the leaf from Si,1to Si,2. This projected line length is the estimate of the leaf width. (c) shows, in orange, the projection (onto the sagittal plane) of the line fitted to the shape of the leaf from Ci,1to Ci,2. This projected line length is the estimate of the leaf length. (d) represents a leaf transversally sliced into abaxial and adaxial surfaces (using the vertices normal vector clustering algorithm).
