Light Interception and Radiation Use Efficiency of Three Cassava Genotypes with Different Plant Types and Seasonal Variations

Agronomy, 2022
The yield potential of cassava might be increased by enhancing light interception and the ability to convert energy into biomass and yield, which is described as radiation use efficiency (RUE).

Radiation interception and biomass production of rainfed rice [PDF]

, 2007
The study was conducted at the experimental field of the Department of Environmental Science, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh (24' 27" N, 90,50" E, elevation 18 m) to determine the fundamental process and trend of radiation interception and biomass production by rainfed rice. Radiation interception varied in various stages of rice growth

Study on Radiation Interception and Use in Some Mustard Varieties

Asian Journal of Advanced Research and Reports, 2020
Aim: Solar radiation is the unique source of energy which drives the photosynthesis of green plants for producing biomass to living being. Use efficiency of solar radiation to produce biomass has been quantified for many crops in field condition but no study is undertaken for mustard although it is an important oil seed crop in the world as well as in ...

Radiation Interception, Radiation Use Efficiency, and Crop Productivity

Photosynthesis is the set of processes whereby radiant energy is converted and stored as chemical energy in most plants, algae, and cyanobacteria. This process depends on radiation, temperature, and ambient CO2 concentration.
