Circadian Rhythms in Photosynthesis 1: Oscillations in Carbon Assimilation and Stomatal Conductance under Constant Conditions

Hennessey, Timothy L., Field, Christopher B.

Net carbon assimilation and stomatal conductance to water vapor oscillated repeatedly in red kidney bean, Phaseolus vulgaris L., plants transferred from a natural photoperiod to constant light. In a...

Biochemical Correlates of the Circadian Rhythm in Photosynthesis in Phaseolus vulgaris 12

Fredeen, Arthur L., Hennessey, Timothy L., Field, Christopher B.
