PROJECT SPOTLIGHT

Out of the darkness: predicting rates of respiration of illuminated leaves along nutrient gradients

This project sought to establish whether there are systematic differences in light inhibition among species, and how phosphorus limitations and diurnal variations in temperature impact on leaf respiration.
