Profiles of <sup>14</sup>C fixation through spinach leaves in relation to light absorption and photosynthetic capacity

John R. Evans, Thomas C. Vogelmann · 2003 · Plant Cell & Environment

Summary. This paper is not about rural innovation. It presents a laboratory study of photosynthetic processes in spinach leaves, measuring carbon dioxide fixation rates at different leaf depths under various light conditions. The researchers developed a model combining light absorption and photosynthetic capacity measurements to predict CO2 fixation profiles, finding strong agreement between observed and predicted results.
