Preliminary photosynthesis measurements of selected wheat cultivars prior to inoculation Dr. Ferenc HorváthDr. Barnabás Wodala
An opensystem In an open system, photosynthesis and transpiration are computed from the differences in CO2 and H2O between in-chamber conditions and pre-chamber conditions.
