Scientists Further Cowpea Research, Boost Crop Productivity – Lab Manager Magazine
Recent research aimed to understand how much variation exists within diverse cowpea lines in light absorption and carbon dioxide assimilation throughout the canopy
Crops grow dense canopies that consist of several layers of leaves—the upper layers with younger sun leaves and the lower layers with older shaded leaves that may have difficulty intercepting sunlight trickling down from the top layers.
In a recent study published in Food and Energy Security, scientists from Realizing Increased Photosynthetic Efficiency (RIPE) aimed to understand how much variation exists within diverse cowpea lines in light absorption and carbon dioxide (CO2) assimilation thro…
