Abstract
Several spp. of plants gained in dry weight over extended periods in artificially controlled conditions of temp., light, humidity, circulation, and CO2 supply. By means of the apparatus described, it was possible to measure accurately the hourly uptake of CO2 by plants from an air stream during periods of illumination, and the amt. of CO2 given off during respiration in periods of darkness.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
