Figure 2 From:Association study between the gibberellic acid insensitive gene and leaf length in aLolium perenneL. synthetic variety Example of the Eq.1 function fitted between leaf length and thermal time. Leaf elongation rate obtained by derivation of the function is shown. Are indicated: the maximum leaf length (Ym), the starting time of elongation with a leaf length of 5 mm (tc), the time when the speed elongation is maximal (tm), the time when the leaf finishes growing (te) and the leaf elongation duration (LED).
