The absorbed quantum yield (slope of
a plot of absorbed quanta against net photosynthesis
at low light levels) of Camissonia
is 0.055 mole of CO2 per einstein,
at ambient CO2 and O2 concentrations
and the measurement temperature of
30°C, a value similar to those obtained
for many C3 and C4 species of higher plants (the value of the quantum yield is determined at
low light levels in white light under conditions in
which the net photosynthetic rate is linearly
dependent on light intensity.) |
