Popis: | We have previously reported that full sun‐grown Heliconia "Golden Torch”; leaves exhibited sustained decreased in PS II efficiency as compared to those grown under shade conditions. In this study, full sunlight plus low level of fertilization caused a further reduction of photosynthesis, chlorophyll content and Fv/Fm ratio while plants grown at high level of nutrient showed higher values of all these parameters. When plants grown under intermediate and deep shade, there was no significant difference in all parameters irrespective of nutrient supply. In the recovery experiments, plants without fertilizer were re‐fertilized weekly. Maximal photosynthetic rates, chlorophyll content, and Fv/Fm ratio increased gradually after re‐fertilizing the plants grown under full sunlight. However, no significant changes of these parameters were observed in plants grown under intermediate and deep shade over the same period. Total leaf nitrogen (N) was measured parallel with all the parameters. Photosynthetic rat... |
