The Effect of the Ionic Strength of Nutrient Solution on Gas Exchange, Ionic Concentration and Leaf Biomass of Annona emarginata (Schltdl.) H. Rainer Variety ‘Terra-Fria’ Seedlings
(2015-01-01)
The present study aimed to test the hypothesis that different levels of the availability of mineral nutrients from Hoagland and Arnon's nutrient solution no. 2 affect the photosynthesis, ionic concentration and biomass ...
Biomass allocation patterns are linked to genotypic differences in whole-plant transpiration efficiency in sunflower
(Frontiers in Bioscience, 2017-11)
Increased transpiration efficiency (the ratio of biomass to water transpired, TE) could lead to increased drought tolerance under some water deficit scenarios. Intrinsic (i.e., leaf-level) TE is usually considered as the ...
Multifrequency and Full-Polarimetric SAR assessment for estimating above ground biomass and leaf area index in the Amazon Várzea Wetlands
(2018-09-01)
The aim of this study is to evaluate the potential of multifrequency and Full-polarimetric Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data for retrieving both Above Ground Biomass (AGB) and Leaf Area Index (LAI) in the Amazon floodplain ...
Temporal variation of biomass and productivity of Thalassia testudinum (Hydrocharitaceae) in Venezuela, Southern Caribbean
(Universidad de Costa Rica, 2006)
Does functional trait diversity predict aboveground biomass and productivity of tropical forests? Testing three alternative hypotheses
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2015-01)
Tropical forests are globally important, but it is not clear whether biodiversity enhances carbon storage and sequestration in them. We tested this relationship focusing on components of functional trait biodiversity as ...
Leaf antioxidant fluctuations and growth responses in saplings of Caesalpinia echinata Lam. (brazilwood) under an urban stressing environment
(ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2010)
We intended to establish how efficient the leaf antioxidant responses of C. echinata are against oxidative environmental conditions observed in an urban environment and their relations to growth and biomass parameters. ...
Bambusa vulgaris leaf area estimation on short-rotation coppice
(2021-01-01)
The use of biomass is increasing in the whole world, which makes it necessary to find new options for biomass production. In this scenario, bamboo appears as a potential species because of its fast-growing capacity. Hence ...
