NITROGEN AND MAXIMUM ASSIMILATION: THE ROLE OF DROUGHT AND REPRODUCTION IN GAS EXCHANGE IN AN UNDERSTORY TROPICAL PLANT MICONIA CILIATA (MELASTOMATACEAE)1
Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
High maximum assimilation rates for control plants in the wet season were significantly correlated with fruiting and flowering, whereas irrigation caused flowering and fruiting in the dry season, spreading M. ciliata reproductive activity in irrigated plants across the entire year.
