Photosynthetic rates of C. gayana communities were calculated using mathematical models relating the photosynthetic contribution of the leaves to dire...
Read moreYield determinations were made during Apr.-May and Aug.-Sept. on vegetative swards of Arrhenatherum elatius, Cynosurus cristatus, Festuca arundinacea,...
Read moreThe apple orchards studied had discontinuous bush-and hedge-type canopies of mean leaf-area indexes of 1-1-4. These values were low, owing to the exis...
