Article Link: https://doi.org/10.1111/pce.14225 AbstractLeaf width ( LW ) plays an important role in shaping intrinsic water‐use efficiency ( iWUE ) across Sorghum bicolor genotypes through coordination of vein and stomatal traits and by regulating stomatal aperture. Wider leaves had higher g sw likely to prevent a detrimental rise in leaf temperature. Therefore, LW could be used as a predictor for higher iWUE among sorghum genotypes.
