The Functional Significance of Black-Pigmented Leaves: Photosynthesis, Photoprotection and Productivity in Ophiopogon planiscapus ‘Nigrescens’
(Public Library of Science, 2013)Black pigmented leaves are common among horticultural cultivars, yet are extremely rare across natural plant populations. We hypothesised that black pigmentation would disadvantage a plant by reducing photosynthesis and ... -
Hydraulic responses of whole vines and individual roots of kiwifruit (Actinidia chinensis) following root severance
(Oxford University Press, 2011)Whole vine (Kplant) and individual root (Kroot) hydraulic conductances were measured in kiwifruit (Actinidia chinensis Planch. var. chinensis ‘Hort16A’) vines to observe hydraulic responses following partial root system ... -
Physiological responses of kiwifruit vines (Actinidia chinensis Planch. var. chinensis) to trunk girdling and root pruning
(Taylor & Francis, 2012)Hydraulic conductance and photosynthesis were measured in kiwifruit (Actinidia sp.) vines to observe responses to the horticultural practices of trunk girdling and root pruning. Little is understood regarding the physiological ...
