Does nitrogen supply affect the light use efficiency of photosynthesis?
Crops such as maize with so-called C4 photosynthesis are among the most productive and the benefits are such, that there are currently efforts to... -
SyN-PHOT: N fixation and photosynthesis under elevated CO2
In a rapidly changing climate, rising CO2 levels potentially boost photosynthesis, but increases the demand for N. Soybean plants can partly acquire... -
A joint lab for advanced plant and crop photosynthesis physiology
The photosynthesis lab is an initiative of the Centre for Crop Systems Analysis (CSA) and the Horticulture and Product Physiology group (HPP) to... -
Investigate the plant architecture ideotype of hybrid potato for improved tuber production
Hybrid potato provides potentials for fast breeding and more sustainable tuber production. The novel hybrids can grow from various starting materials,... -
How dynamic is light inside canopies? Intercepting light in the real world
The conversion of light into biomass and harvestable product is one of the key processes that drive yield. Not only the amount of light intercepted by... -
Assessment of genetic variation in photosynthetic temperature response in wheat
The response to temperature is a key trait for breeding more resilient crops for future climates, where temperatures are predicted to rise by 2-4... -
Open-Abs: an open source method to quickly measure leaf absorbtance
Visible light is readily absorbed by leaves and used in photosynthesis. This light varies greatly in intensity over time and e.g. within a canopy. As... -
Effects of elevated CO2 and nitrogen availability on growth, photosynthesis and resource allocation
In the near future, the concentration of CO2 is predicted to further increase and this will have implications for crop production. Elevated [CO2] has... -
Does climate change affect photosynthesis and nitrogen fixation activity in soybean?
In the near future, the concentration of CO2 is predicted to further increase and this will have implications for crop production. Elevated [CO2] has... -
