Effects of water and temperature stresses on radiation use efficiency in a semi-arid grassland

Abstract: Accurate estimation of radiation use efficiency (RUE) is essential in modeling plant productivity, but little information on RUE is available for dry grassland. To quantify the RUE, aboveground biomass (AGB) and photosynthetically active radiation intercepted by plants (IPAR) were measured under different conditions of soil water and air temperature in a Mongolian field for 2 years. A wide range of RUE (0.23Á1.06 g AGB/MJ IPAR) was found in negative association with variations in soil water and low temperature… Show more

“…This circumstance was also described by Jamieson et al (1995), where leaf senescence is the main cause of decreased radiation intercepted while causing biomass production to decrease. Bat-Oyun et al (2011) reported that water stress caused the senescence of plants and brought a reduction in canopy photosynthetic capacity; such a situation also occurred in this experiment, where rice plants planted in saturated soil conditions had a lower net photosynthetic rate compared to flooded soil conditions.…”

“…Variations in TDM based RUE attributed to change in radiation interception which is a key function for the production of dry biomass (Scott et al, 2003). In current study, a progressive reduction in RUETDM was ascribed with drought stress, as decrease in RUETDM might be due to decline in canopy photosynthetic efficiency as a result of leaf senescence by means of drought stress (Bat-Oyun et al, 2011). Integrated use of inorganic NPK and FYM caused a positive change in RUETDM because of increased dry matter production through quick leaf area development by maximum interception of incoming PAR.…”

“…The spatial and temporal variations of ANPP may be analyzed using the Monteith model (1972): ANPP = PARi × fAPAR × RUE, where PARi is incident photosynthetically active radiation, fAPAR is the fraction of absorbed photosynthetically active radiation, and RUE is the above‐ground radiation use efficiency: the conversion of absorbed radiation into above‐ground dry matter (Running et al, 2000). fAPAR may be estimated from satellite spectral indices (Baret & Guyot, 1991; Box et al, 1989; DiBella et al, 2004; Goward et al, 1985; Paruelo et al, 1997; Piñeiro et al, 2006; Prince, 1991; Sellers et al, 1992; Tucker et al, 1985), PARi is obtained from weather stations, and RUE is generally estimated by field measurement (Bat‐Oyun et al, 2011; Oyarzabal et al, 2010; Sinclair & Muchow, 1999). The difficulty in estimating RUE generates uncertainty on ANPP estimates and limits the use of Monteith’s model (Nouvellon et al, 2000).…”

“…Differences in species composition or functional types among plant communities are examples of interactive controls (Guido et al, 2014). Finally, examples of direct controls on RUE are variations in the availability of nutrients and soil water (Bat‐Oyun et al, 2011; Hunt & Miyake, 2006; Nouvellon et al, 2000; Zhang et al, 2006), and seasonal fluctuations in light and temperature (Piñeiro et al, 2006).…”
