Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Shading reduced maximum photosynthetic rate more in maize than Paspalum.
- Intervention effect Low light did not decrease intercellular CO2 concentration in either species.
- Observation Paspalum intercellular CO2 concentration was 30% greater than maize under high photon flux.
- Observation Paspalum leaf water use efficiency was lower than maize.
- Intervention effect Shading reduced specific leaf weight, leaf thickness and chlorenchyma volume more in maize.
- Observation Paspalum bundle sheath chloroplasts had well-defined grana stacks, unlike maize.
- Observation High-light Paspalum mesophyll chloroplasts contained abundant starch, unlike maize.
