Net Assimilation Rate Determines the Growth Rates of 14 Species of Subtropical Forest Trees. [PDF]
Growth rates are of fundamental importance for plants, as individual size affects myriad ecological processes. We determined the factors that generate variation in RGR among 14 species of trees and shrubs that are abundant in subtropical Chinese forests.

Net Assimilation Rate and Agronomic Efficiency of Nitrogen in Tartago (Ricinus communis L.) (Euphorbiaceae) in Dry Climate [PDF]
To know the dynamics of net assimilation rate and the agronomic efficiency of nitrogen in the Tartago crop, seeds of three accessions were collected in Teotitlán de Flores Magón, Oaxaca, Mexico. The treatments consisted of nitrogen fertilization of 0, 20,

A Method of Calculating Net Assimilation Rate [PDF]
A USEFUL measure of the photosynthetic efficiency of plants is ‘net assimilation rate’ (E) defined by Gregory1 as the rate of increase of dry weight (W) per unit of leaf area (L); that is: In measuring W the plant is destroyed, so changes in W can be determined only by successive ...

The Influence of Removing Tubers on Dry-matter Production and Net Assimilation Rate of Potato Plants
To study the effect of removing tubers on growth and net assimilation rate ( E ) of potato, plants were grown in pots partly filled with soil with the shoot growing through a polythene cover. Tubers developed in the space between the cover and the soil surface.

Increased Ratio of Electron Transport to Net Assimilation Rate Supports Elevated Isoprenoid Emission Rate in Eucalypts under Drought [PDF]
Abstract Plants undergoing heat and low-CO2 stresses emit large amounts of volatile isoprenoids compared with those in stress-free conditions. One hypothesis posits that the balance between reducing power availability and its use in carbon assimilation determines constitutive isoprenoid emission rates in plants and potentially even their

Relationship of Relative Leaf Growth Rate to Net Assimilation Rate and its Relevance to the Physiological Analysis of Plant Yield [PDF]
IN the growing plant, where the photosynthetic tissues make the major contribution to dry-matter production, the absolute growth rate at any time is the product of the rate of increase in weight per unit of leaf (net assimilation rate1, N.A.R.) and the amount of leaf present.

TEMPERATURE IN RELATION TO GROWTH AND NET ASSIMILATION RATE OF OATS
The effects of temperature variations in the microclimate on two oat varieties were investigated in relation to the growth of this crop as measured by total dry matter and net assimilation rate (N.A.R.). A significant correlation of + 0.691 was obtained between N.A.R.
