Heliotropism | EBSCO Research Starters
Diaheliotropism is the tendency of leaves or other organs of a plant to track the sun by turning their surfaces toward it . Tracking the sun maximizes the amount of direct solar radiation received. Diaheliotropic movements can increase radiation interception, enhance photosynthesis, and increase growth rates of plants.
