Other claims from this paper (4)
- Observation In field-grown soybean communities the mean intercepted radiation of each layer tended to decrease gradually toward the base of the canopy.
- Observation Leaves on branches intercepted about 60% of the total intercepted radiation at the flowering stage.
- Observation The portion of intercepted radiation by leaves on branches increased to about 70% at the young pod stage.
- Observation Terminal leaflets intercepted 4 to 10% more radiation than side leaflets.
