Feldman, A. B., Murchie, E. H., Leung, H., Baraoidan, M., Coe, R., Yu, S., …Quick, W. P. (2014). Increasing leaf vein density by mutagenesis: laying the foundations for C4 rice. PLoS ONE, 9(4), 1-9. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0094947

A high leaf vein density is both an essential feature of C4 photosynthesis and a foundation trait to C4 evolution, ensuring the optimal proportion and proximity of mesophyll and bundle sheath cells for permitting the rapid exchange of photosynthates....
