Summary Grapevine leaves are a model morphometric system. Sampling over ten thousand using dozens of landmarks, the genetic, developmental, and environmental basis leaf shape has been studied morphospace for genus Vitis predicted. Yet, these representations fail to capture exquisite features at high resolution. We measure shapes 139 grapevine 1672 pseudo-landmarks derived from 90 homologous landmarks with Procrustean approaches. From hand traces vasculature blade, we have method...
Societal Impact Statement Grapevine leaves are emblematic of the strong visual associations people make with plants. Leaf shape is immediately recognizable at a glance, and therefore, this used to distinguish grape varieties. In an era computationally enabled machine learning‐derived representations reality, we can revisit how view use shapes forms that plants display understand our relationship them. Using computational approaches combined time‐honored methods, predict theoretical possible,...
