Other claims from this paper (5)
- Association Leaf water use efficiency differences between wheat cultivars or treatments were associated with Rubisco activity or electron transport rate.
- Association A high leaf water use efficiency was associated with a low photosynthetic nitrogen use efficiency when wheat cultivars were compared at high irradiance.
- Association A high leaf water use efficiency was not associated with a low photosynthetic nitrogen use efficiency when it resulted from higher photosynthesis at low irradiance with high water and nitrogen supply.
- Association Increasing the proportion of total leaf nitrogen in the photosynthetic apparatus under low soil nitrogen increased photosynthetic nitrogen use efficiency.
- Association Under low soil nitrogen, the proportion of leaf nitrogen in the photosynthetic apparatus did not affect leaf water use efficiency.
