Photosynthetic units of sun and shade plants.
A computer analysis of fluorescence induction curves of leaves treated with 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1 dimethylurea was done for several species. These measurements gave the ratios of the total chlorophyll to photosystem II reaction centers. This communication is a preliminary survey of sun and shade plants and demonstrates a significant variation in this ratio. In the sun plants, the photosynt...
متن کاملPhotosynthetic Rates of Sun versus Shade Leaves of Hyptis emoryi Torr.
Leaves on a bush of Hyptis emoryi Torr. varied in length from less than 1 cm when development occurred in full sunlight (e.g. 40 Mjoules m(-2)) to over 7 cm when the total daily solar irradiance was less than 3 Mjoules m(-2). The 1-cm sun leaves were 3-fold higher than the 7-cm shade leaves in chlorophyll per unit area, mesophyll thickness, and the internal to external leaf area ratio (A(mes)/A...
متن کاملDifferences in pigment composition, photosynthetic rates and chlorophyll fluorescence images of sun and shade leaves of four tree species.
The differential pigment composition and photosynthetic activity of sun and shade leaves of deciduous (Acer pseudoplatanus, Fagus sylvatica, Tilia cordata) and coniferous (Abies alba) trees was comparatively determined by studying the photosynthetic rates via CO(2) measurements and also by imaging the Chl fluorescence decrease ratio (R(Fd)), which is an in vivo indicator of the net CO(2) assimi...
متن کاملIrradiance and phenotype: comparative eco-development of sun and shade leaves in relation to photosynthetic CO2 diffusion.
The subject of this paper, sun leaves are thicker and show higher photosynthetic rates than the shade leaves, is approached in two ways. The first seeks to answer the question: why are sun leaves thicker than shade leaves? To do this, CO2 diffusion within a leaf is examined first. Because affinity of Rubisco for CO2 is low, the carboxylation of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate is competitively inhibit...
