Abstract
Genetic variability in the plant kingdom serves to provide adaptability of the plant to a specific environment. Production of food, feed, and fiber (biomass) may be limited more by incompatibility of the plant with its environment than by efficiency of the photosynthetic mechanism per se in plants.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
