Photosynthetic pigments and CO2 exchange in plants of high arctic tundra
Maximum values of chlorophyll (Chl) (a + b) content, potentíal (Pp) and net (Pu) photosynthetíc rate in the populatíon of 25 species growing in the tundra of Wrangel Island are presented. Field measurements of response of Pp and P^ to irradiance were doně. Maximum Chl content in arctic plants was ty...
