Other claims from this paper (6)
- Method / resource Photoperiod shortening and full-day shading yielded almost identical photosynthesis and respiration estimates.
- Association Net assimilation rate decreased about half over 50 days in wheat.
- Observation Photosynthesis was always much greater than respiration; the minimum ratio was 5.
- Mechanism Age-related assimilation decline was mainly due to declining photosynthesis.
- Association Respiration changed relatively little with age.
- Observation Sugar beet assimilation at 30 days was twice wheat assimilation due to photosynthesis.
