Predicting growth and development of pigeonpea: biomass accumulation and partitioning [PDF]
Examining physiological relationships that quantify the processes of interception of radiation and biomass accumulation and partitioning provide one avenue for understanding limits to pigeon pea productivity. The radiation extinction coefficient (k), radiation use efficiency (RUE), partitioning of biomass between leaf and stem before flowering, and the

Asymmetric response of above- and below ground biomass of C3- and C4-dominated grasslands to aridity
Assessing the dynamics of grassland functioning is critical for gaining an understanding of their feedback on rising aridity. In attempting to understand the response of grassland ecosystem functioning to aridity, the (i) relationships between biomass ...

Interaction of Light Intensity and CO2 Concentration Alters Biomass Partitioning in Chrysanthemum
Biomass partitioning is one of the pivotal determinants of crop growth management, which is influenced by environmental cues. Light and CO2 are the main drivers of photosynthesis and biomass production in plants. In this study, the effects of CO2 levels:

Carbon and biomass partitioning in balsam fir (Abies balsamea) [PDF]
Balsam fir (Abies balsamea (L.) Mill) was extensively sampled to investigate the effects of forest management practices, site location, within-crown position, tree component (i.e., stem, foliage, branches and roots), and tree social classes on biomass and carbon (C) partitioning at the individual tree level and across ecological regions. The sites were

A manipulation of carotenoid metabolism influence biomass partitioning and fitness in tomato
Improving yield, nutritional value and tolerance to abiotic stress are major targets of current breeding and biotechnological approaches that aim at increasing crop production and ensuring food security. Metabolic engineering of carotenoids, the precursor of vitamin-A and plant hormones that regulate plant growth and response to adverse growth ...
