Abstract:The models used to describe the light response of electron transport rate in photosynthesis play a crucial role in determining two key parameters i.e., the maximum electron transport rate (Jmax) and the saturation light intensity (Isat). However, not all models accurately fit J–I curves, and determine the values of Jmax and Isat. Here, three models, namely the double exponential (DE) model, the non-rectangular hyperbolic (NRH) model, and a mechanistic model developed by one of the coauthors (Z-P Ye) and his co… Show more
