摘要

Many characteristics of plants and animals scale with body size as described by allometric equations of the form Y = βM{alpha}, where Y is an attribute of the organism, β is a coefficient that varies with attribute, M is a measure of organism size, and {alpha} is another constant, the 縮放律 exponent. In current models, the frequently observed quarter-power 縮放律 exponents are hypothesized to be due to 碎形-like structures. However, not all plants or animals conform to the assumptions of these models. Therefore, they might be expected to have different 縮放律 relations. We studied one such plant, Chamaesyce setiloba, a prostrate annual herb that grows to functionally fill a two-dimensional space. Number of leaves scaled slightly less than isometrically with total aboveground plant mass ({alpha} {app
