The almost glabrous beech leaves revealed a greater predisposition to developing macroscopic necrotic lesions than the pubescent holm oak leaves. This response is due primarily to their different morpho-anatomical structure, rather than to a difference in the synthesis of UV-B absorbing pigments (flavonoids); the response was also accompanied by microscopically observable alterations (collapse of epidermal cells, fusion of surface wax structures, structural damage to the stomata) and by the reduction of stomatal conductance</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Liakoura, V</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Stefanou, M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Manetas, Y</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Trichome density and its UV-B protective potential are affected by shading and leaf position on the canopy</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Environmental and Experimental Botany</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">leaf hairs</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Olea europaea</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">phenolics</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus coccifera</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">uv-b radiation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">verbascum speciosum</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1997</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">38</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">223-229</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">In Olea europaea trichome density and UV-B absorbing compounds of leaf hairs and the lamina proper of leaves located in south-facing, north-facing and the internal of the canopy were positively correlated to the UV-B midday instant irradiance measured in September at these three different positions of the canopy.

Although trichome density and the UV-B absorbing compounds of the de-haired leaf were the same in the two areas, the UV-B absorbing capacity of hairs was considerably increased in the exposed region. In V. speciosum, exposure induced also qualitative changes in the UV-B absorbance profile, apparently due to the formation of new flavonoid compounds absorbing maximally at 345-350 nm. In all other cases, the differences were mainly quantitative. The results support the postulate of a function of leaf hairs as a UV-B radiation screen and suggest that trichome density and/or its UV-B absorbing capacity may depend on irradiance during leaf development.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Liakoura, V.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Stefanou, M.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Manetas, Y.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Trichome density and its UV-B protective potential are affected by shading and leaf position on the canopy</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Environmental and Experimental Botany</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">leaf hairs</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Olea europaea</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">phenolics</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus coccifera</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">uv-b radiation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">verbascum speciosum</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1997</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1997///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0098847297000051</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">38</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">223 - 229</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">In Olea europaea trichome density and UV-B absorbing compounds of leaf hairs and the lamina proper of leaves located in south-facing, north-facing and the internal of the canopy were positively correlated to the UV-B midday instant irradiance measured in September at these three different positions of the canopy.
