Shoot structure, light interception, and distribution of nitrogen in an Abies amabilis canopy.
We studied the effects of variation in shoot structure and needle morphology on the distributions of light and nitrogen within a Pacific silver fir (Abies amabilis (Dougl.) Forbes) canopy. Specifically, we investigated the role of morphological shade acclimation in the determination of resource use efficiency, which is claimed to be optimal when the distribution of nitrogen within the canopy is...
متن کاملCultivar and fruit size influence bruise susceptibility and some physical properties of apple fruit
ABSTRACT- For most fruit types, including apples, bruising is the most common type of postharvest mechanical injury. Bruise susceptibility was investigated in 3 commercial cultivars (‘JazzTM’, ‘Granny Smith’ and ‘Fuji’) and among a range of 4 different fruit sizes (commercial counts of 135, 120, 100, and 88) in each cultivar. Bruising was carried out by dropping a uniform round steel ball (110g...
متن کاملSpectral Distribution of Light in a Tobacco Canopy and Effects of End-of-Day Light Quality on Growth and Development.
Shifts in spectral distribution of light were determined within and below a canopy of field-grown burley tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. Burley 21). The leaves transmitted much far red light relative to red and blue light. Thus, shaded leaves received more far red light, relative to red and blue, than was received by unshaded leaves. Under field conditions, tobacco plants within rows grew tal...
متن کاملLight interception and partitioning between shoots in apple cultivars influenced by training.
The effect of two training systems (Central Leader with branch pruning versus Centrifugal Training with minimal pruning, i.e., removal of fruiting laterals only) on canopy structure and light interception was analyzed in three architecturally contrasting apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) cultivars: 'Scarletspur Delicious' (Type II); 'Golden Delicious' (Type III); and 'Granny Smith' (Type IV). Tree...
متن کاملCanopy Architecture Quantification and Spatial Direct Light Interception Modeling of Hybrid Rice
Rice is one of the most important crops in the world, and hybrid rice is planted broadly in China which accounts for half of China’s rice acreage. Quantification of rice spatial architecture is useful for breeding high yield cultivars, and studies on morphogenesis and development of rice plant structure have been carried out (Watanabe et al., 2005). Three-dimensional (3D) digitizing has been a ...
