During photosynthesis, CO2 moves from the atmosphere (Ca) surrounding the leaf to the
sub‐stomatal internal cavities (Ci) through stomata, and from there to the site of …

The rate of N uptake of crops is highly variable during crop development and between years
and sites. However, under ample soil N availability, crop N accumulation is highly related to …

Enhancing photosynthesis is widely accepted as critical to advancing crop yield. However,
yield consequences of photosynthetic manipulation are confounded by feedback effects …

There has been a recent surge of interest in remote sensing and its use in ecology and
conservation but this is the first book to focus explicitly on the NDVI (Normalised Difference …

From the reviews of the 3rd edition:" The textbook of Walter Larcher (...) belongs certainly to
the most successful manuals that ever existed."(Photosynthetica, Czech Republic)"(...) it …

This new edition provides current information on the nutritional requirements of world crops.
It presents research on the acquisition, accumulation, transport, and functions of chemical …

The photosynthetic capacity of leaves is related to the nitrogen content primarily bacause the
proteins of the Calvin cycle and thylakoids represent the majority of leaf nitrogen. To a first …

Variation in carbon-isotope composition among and between wheat genotypes was
correlated with variation in water-use efficiency in separate pot experiments conducted in …

Leaf and canopy nitrogen (N) status relates strongly to leaf and canopy chlorophyll (Chl)
content. Remote sensing is a tool that has the potential to assess N content at leaf, plant …

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the physiological causes and ecological
consequences of inherent variation in growth rate among higher plants. When grown under …
