New Study Reveals Factors Impacting Photosynthesis Efficiency in Autumn Leaves
The study looked at how the photosynthesis of OAioglossum thermale Kom leaves changes throughout the day in natural conditions. On clear autumn days, the photosynthetic rate had two peaks but decreased at midday due to factors like photo inhibition and photo respiration. The main factors affecting photosynthesis were sunlight, air humidity, and CO2 levels.
