Effects of shading on leaf morphology and response characteristics of photosynthesis in Alhagi sparsifolia
|
Abstract:
Aims Alhagi sparsifolia,which occurs in arid regions,is commonly considered a type of sun plant.Research indicates that sun plants can successfully adapt to a range of shade through changes in leaf morphology such as increased thickness and decreased size and specific leaf area (SLA).Our objective was to investigate the effects of shading on A.sparsifolia.Methods We selected two light regimes,natural and shade (60% of natural light),to understand the effects of shading on leaf morphology and response charac...
