A Review of Modeled Water Use Efficiency of Highly Productive Perennial Grasses Useful for Bioenergy [PDF]
, 2020 Whole plant productivity is obviously the ultimate product of leaf photosynthesis and this has led to numerous efforts to relate the two. However, often with perennial grasses, plant productivity is more sink-limited than source-limited, causing the ...
