Multiscale Framework for Modeling and Analyzing Light Interception by Trees [PDF]
Multiscale Modeling & Simulation, 2008 This paper presents a new framework for modeling light interception by isolated trees which makes it possible to analyze the influence of structural tree organization on light capture. The framework is based on a multiscale representation of the plant organization. Tree architecture is decomposed into a collection of components representing clusters of

Far-Red Light Effects on Lettuce Growth and Morphology in Indoor Production Are Cultivar Specific
Plants, 2022 Understanding crop responses to the light spectrum is critical for optimal indoor production. Far-red light is of particular interest, because it can accelerate growth through both physiological and morphological mechanisms.

Influence of plant architecture on maize physiology and yield in the Heilonggang River valley
Crop Journal, 2017 The size and distribution of leaf area determine light interception in a crop canopy and influence overall photosynthesis and yield. Optimized plant architecture renders modern maize hybrids (Zea mays L.) more productive, owing to their tolerance of high

Milk production of crossbred holstein × zebu on different pasture-management strategies
Bioscience Journal, 2020 The objective of this study was to evaluate nutrient intake and digestibility, yield and components of milk from Holstein × Zebu cows on Tanzania grass pastures using a fixed-rest period or 95% light interception. The treatments consisted of evaluations

Influence of Shoot Structure on Light Interception and Photosynthesis in Conifers [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1985 The influence of shoot structure on net photosynthesis was evaluated under field conditions for the central Rocky Mountain (United States) conifers Picea engelmannii (Parry ex Engelm.), Abies lasiocarpa ([Hook] Nutt.), and Pinus contorta (Engelm.).
