During the dry season, when the LAI value was overall lower than 0.5 m2 m−2, the light saturation was not so clear.
The variable Ek corresponding to light saturation is used to characterize the photo acclimation status of microalgae cultures (Serodio et al. 2006).
During the dry season, when the LAI value was overall lower than 0.5 m m−2, the light saturation was not so clear.
Light saturation is defined at 90%% of the maximal ETR fitted by the model and was derived by solving equation (1).
Light saturation of photosynthesis occurred at a PFD of 580 μmol (photons) m−2 s−1 for the shaded leaves, while for the exposed leaves light saturation was more than twice as much at 1270 μmol (photons) m−2 s−1.
The data from the light-response curves at light saturation were used to calculate the intrinsic water-use efficiency (WUEi) as the ratio of Amax to stomatal conductance (gs), also measured by the Li-Cor 6400XT.
Manipulation of leaf angle in soybean (Kokubun 1988) and even in maize (Pendleton et al. 1968) showed a yield benefit from erect leaves, even though light-saturation is less likely in C4 maize.
The light saturation index is a proxy for the irradiance that is needed to saturate photosynthesis, i.e. the threshold irradiance that separates light-limited and light-saturated photosynthesis.
That said, tones that are light to moderate in color saturation are the most recommended.
The light saturation index was calculated from rETR divided by α [65], [66].
