Abstract:Stable and dynamic light responses for net photosynthetic rate of 18 year old China fir shoots with different age and position within the tree crown were measured under optimum temperature(30±10℃) and humidity(70%±5%) for photosynthesis and normal ambient CO 2(350±10×10 -6 V/V). Results showed that Pn , photosynthetic saturated light intensity ( PSLI ) and light compensation point ( LCP ) of shoots decreased from upper crown through mid crown to lower crown while apparent photo utilization e...
