Quantification of spatial-temporal light interception of crops in different configurations of soybean-maize strip intercropping

Frontiers in Plant Science
Intercropping can improve light interception and crop yield on limited farmlands. The light interception rate in intercropping is determined by row configuration.

Intercropping wheat and maize increases total radiation interception and wheat RUE but lowers maize RUE

, 2017
Row configuration has a large influence on the intensity of species interactions in intercrops. Row configuration affects how many crop rows interact with the same species and how many rows interact with the other species, shaping the expression of ...

A novel light interception trait of a hybrid rice ideotype indicative of leaf to panicle ratio

, 2021
One of the major challenges facing rice breeding is to produce ideotype or ideal plant architecture (IPA) to improve canopy radiation use efficiency and hence grain yield.

Solar radiation absorbed or intercepted by a crop

, 1989
Cet article rappelle les principales définitions et méthodes de mesure utilisées dans les études du bilan radiatif solaire d’un couvert végétal. Le rayonnement solaire reçu par un couvert végétal peut être caractérisé par : - le rayonnement global (ou total): 9 Rgo mesuré par l’éclairement énergétique des rayonnements direct et diffus, - le rayonnement

Yield determination in olive hedgerow orchards. I. Yield and profiles of yield components in north–south and east–west oriented hedgerows

, 2009
A study of the vertical distribution of flowering and fruit set and of components of yield (fruit numbers, fruit size, and fruit oil content) was maintained for 2 years in N–S- and E–W-oriented olive hedgerows of comparable structure (row spacing 4m ...

Orbital dynamics of high area-to-mass ratio spacecraft with J2 and solar radiation pressure for novel Earth observation and communication services [PDF]

, 2012
This paper investigates the effect of planetary oblateness and solar radiation pressure on the orbits of high area-to-mass spacecraft. A planar Hamiltonian model shows the existence of equilibrium orbits with the orbit apogee pointing towards or away ...
