      abstract     = {Chlorophyll (Chl) accumulation and leaf growth were
                      analysed in delayed-greening leaves of Theobroma cacao (L.)
                      to examine whether these parameters are correlated during
                      leaf development and can be used as non-destructive
                      indicators of leaf developmental stages. There was a clear
                      correlation between Chl content and leaf relative growth
                      rate (RGR) and between Chl content and percentage of full
                      leaf expansion $(\%FLE)$ under different growth conditions.
                      Five distinct developmental phases were defined according to
                      the correlation between these parameters and corroborated by
                      data from the analyses of leaf growth (epidermal cell size
                      and specific leaf area) or photosynthetic properties
                      (maximal PSII efficiency, CO2 assimilation and
                      non-structural carbohydrate contents). The five phases were
                      characterised by rapid leaf expansion by cell division (I),
                      pronounced cell expansion (II), development of
                      photosynthetic capacity concomitant with reinforcement of
                      leaf structure (III), and maturation (IV and V). The
                      transition from cell division to cell expansion happened
                      uniformly across the leaf lamina between phase I and II; the
                      sink-to-source transition was found between phase III and
                      IV. These results demonstrate coordinated development of
                      photosynthetic machinery and leaf structure in
                      delayed-greening leaves and provide a simple and
                      non-invasive method for estimation of leaf developmental
                      stages in T. cacao.},
