Which common indices of sclerophylly best reflect differencesin leaf structure?
When describing the sclerophyllous nature of leaves, two indices are most commonly cited: fibre:protein ratio (FPR), better known as the Loveless sclerophylly index; and leaf mass per unit area (LMA), or its inverse, specific leaf area (SLA). Here, we assess the relative importance of these two indi...
