Clarifying the influence of water availability and plant types on carbon isotope discrimination by C3 plants.
We are pleased that the results of Kohn (1) so strongly support our findings published earlier in PNAS (2). Both studies (1, 2) analyzed published measurements of the carbon isotope composition of plants and quantified relationships between isotopic fractionation and environmental factors at large spatial scales. These relationships will be useful when interpreting archives of plant-derived car...
متن کاملeffects of diverse microclimates and soil water contents on water-use efficiency and carbon isotope discrimination for bush bean
environmental variables, including soil water content (swc), act as constraints on crop growth and productivity. therefore, open air (e0), perforated (e1) and non-perforated (e2) plastic housings were used with well-watered (w0), moderately-watered (w1) and water-stressed (w2) bush bean plants to explore the relationships between water-use efficiency (wue), carbon isotope discrimination (δ) and...
متن کاملThe relationships between carbon isotope discrimination and photosynthesis and rice yield under shading
The measurement of carbon isotope discrimination (∆) provides an integrated insight into theresponse of plants to environmental change. To investigate the potential use of ∆ for identifyingshade tolerance in rice, five rice varieties were selected and artificially shaded (53% lightreduction) during the grain-filling period in 2010 and 2011, in Sichuan, China. Shadingtreatment had a significant ...
متن کاملthe effect of taftan pozzolan on the compressive strength of concrete in the environmental conditions of oman sea (chabahar port)
cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...
Evaluation of Drought Tolerance in Safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) Under Water Deficit Stress Conditions
Drought is a threaded factor in the world production and application of breeding methods could improve the tolerant and adapted cultivators under drought stress condition. In order to evaluate and determine the stress tolerance indices and identifion of tolerant genotypes to drought stress, 15 safflower genotypes were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with three replications in tw...
