Effects of seasonality, fertilization and species on the chlorophyll a fluorescence as related with photosynthesis and leguminous tree growth during Amazonian forest restoration
Abstract:The ability of species to adjust their light energy uptake is determined during plant establishment and development. Changes in resource availability may impact energy fluxes and photosynthesis. General and specific variations in chlorophyll a fluorescence under high vs. low water and nutrient conditions have been studied. N2-fixing leguminous trees, which are commonly used in tropical forest restoration, seem to be very well adapted to degraded ecosystems. To understand the effects of biological nitrogen fixa… Show more
