Leaves are continuously irrigated by a system of internal plumbing that defines their maximum photosynthetic output, and angiosperms are the most productive plants on earth largely by virtue of a uniquely efficient system of leaf plumbing. This project will identify how such an important modification of leaf water transport came to evolve.

叶片由一个内部管道系统持续灌溉，这个系统决定了它们最大的光合作用输出，被子植物是地球上产量最高的植物，很大程度上是由于一个独特的高效的叶片管道系统。该项目将确定这种重要的叶片水分运输变化是如何演变的。
