A laser scanning method to track leaf growth and movement of individual leaves. Point clouds from scanned images of Arabidopsis rosettes (left) are monitored for changes over time in the positions of specific points. P0, position of meristem; PP, position of petiole-blade junction; PT, position of leaf tip; l and Φ, length and elevation angle of the whole leaf (ltip, Φtip), petiole (lpet, Φpet), and blade (lbl, Φbl). (Reprinted from Dornbusch et al. [2014], Figure 1A.)
