Mustard (Brassica juncea L.) is characterized by a large number of leaves in the lower layers. These leaves are poorly illuminated, remain below the light compensation point and abscise at maturity. The effects of removing 50 % of all leaves taken from the lower half of the plant at 40 (pre-flowering) or 60 (post-flowering) days after sowing (DAS) were studied on photosynthesis and growth at 80 DAS and on yield at harvest. A comparison of stomatal and mesophyll effects on photosynthesis upon removal of such leaves was also made. Defoliation at 40 DAS resulted in a higher rate of photosynthesis (P N), growth and yield compared to defoliation at 60 DAS or the no defoliation control. The non-significant variation in stomatal limitation (I S), increased... |

Water deficit alters biochemical and physiological processes ranging from photosynthesis to protein synthesis and solute accumulation in the different organs of the plant. The objectives of this study were to determine the effect of water deficit on photosynthetic responses of leaves at different ages and the accumulation of soluble sugar and starch in the stems and leaves of sunflowers (Helianthus annuus L.). Two sunflower cultivars (Sanbro and TR-3080) were used under two water regimes, well watered (70 % irrigation) and water deficit (20 % irrigation) according to the field capacity of soil under greenhouse conditions. The experimental design was randomized complete block with five replicates. The transpiration rate (E), the ratio of intercellular air... |
