stem-architecture

2 articles

Stem architecture refers to the structural organization and growth patterns of plant stems, including branching angles, internode lengths, and overall plant form. Understanding stem architecture is critical for plant science because it directly influences light capture efficiency, resource allocation, and yield potential in crops. Researchers study the genetic and environmental factors that shape stem architecture to develop plants better suited for modern agricultural systems.
