Water and Radiation Use Efficiencies in Sorghum

open access: yesCSA News, 2013
Increasing water and radiation use efficiencies (WUE and RUE, respectively) are critical to enhance crop production. Exploring genetic variability in WUE and RUE is necessary to improve these traits. The objectives of this research were to evaluate eight sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] genotypes for biomass production, WUE, and RUE and to test ...

Productivity and radiation use efficiency of tea grown under different shade trees in the plain land of West Bengal

open access: yesJournal of Agrometeorology, 2008
Tea is grown under shade trees at higher elevation to attain better quality and higher productivity of the leaf. Hence, a field study was carried out to study the influence the shade trees on productivity and radiation use efficiency of the tea, when ...

Heating of gas inside radio sources to mildly relativistic temperatures via induced Compton scattering [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Measured values of the brightness temperature of low-frequency synchrotron radiation emitted by powerful extragalactic sources reach 10^11--10^12 K. If some amount of nonrelativistic ionized gas is present within such sources, it should be heated as a ...

A polymer tandem solar cell with 10.6% power conversion efficiency. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
An effective way to improve polymer solar cell efficiency is to use a tandem structure, as a broader part of the spectrum of solar radiation is used and the thermalization loss of photon energy is minimized.

On the Kinetic Energy and Radiative Efficiency of Gamma-Ray Bursts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Using measured X-ray luminosities to 17 Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) during the afterglow phase and accounting for radiative losses, we calculate the kinetic energy of these bursts and investigate its relation to other GRB properties. We then use the observed

The importance of radiation for semiempirical water-use efficiency models [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2017
Water-use efficiency (WUE) is a fundamental property for the coupling of carbon and water cycles in plants and ecosystems. Existing model formulations predicting this variable differ in the type of response of WUE to the atmospheric vapor pressure ...

Integrated Crop Management Practices Improve Grain Yield and Resource Use Efficiency of Super Hybrid Rice

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Super hybrid rice genotypes have transformed the rate of genetic yield gain primarily due to intersubspecific heterosis, although the physiological basis underpinning this yield transformation has not been well quantified.
