  29. (Hook.) Oerst. collected from three altitudes (350, 780 and 1100 m above sea level) and grown in a common
  30. glasshouse trial. Plants were grown from cuttings taken 2 years earlier from a number of plants at each altitude in
  31. Mt Field National Park, Tasmania. Stomatal density increased with increasing altitude of origin, and stomatal conductance
  32. and carbon assimilation rate were linearly related across all samples. The altitude of origin influenced the
  33. stomatal conductance and therefore carbon assimilation rate, with plants from 780 m having a greater photosynthetic
  34. rate than those from 350 m. The intercellular concentration of CO2 as a ratio of external CO2 concentration (ci/ca)
  35. was similar in all plants despite the large variation in maximum stomatal conductance. Carboxylation efficiency was
  36. greater in plants from 780 m than in plants from 350 m. Altitude of origin has a strong influence on the photosynthetic
  37. performance of N. cunninghamii plants even when grown under controlled conditions, and this influence
  38. is expressed in both leaf biochemistry (carboxylation efficiency) and leaf morphology (stomatal density)." name="eprints.abstract" />

  260. (Hook.) Oerst. collected from three altitudes (350, 780 and 1100 m above sea level) and grown in a common&#13;
  261. glasshouse trial. Plants were grown from cuttings taken 2 years earlier from a number of plants at each altitude in&#13;
  262. Mt Field National Park, Tasmania. Stomatal density increased with increasing altitude of origin, and stomatal conductance&#13;
  263. and carbon assimilation rate were linearly related across all samples. The altitude of origin influenced the&#13;
  264. stomatal conductance and therefore carbon assimilation rate, with plants from 780 m having a greater photosynthetic&#13;
  265. rate than those from 350 m. The intercellular concentration of CO2 as a ratio of external CO2 concentration (ci/ca)&#13;
  266. was similar in all plants despite the large variation in maximum stomatal conductance. Carboxylation efficiency was&#13;
  267. greater in plants from 780 m than in plants from 350 m. Altitude of origin has a strong influence on the photosynthetic&#13;
  268. performance of N. cunninghamii plants even when grown under controlled conditions, and this influence&#13;
  269. is expressed in both leaf biochemistry (carboxylation efficiency) and leaf morphology (stomatal density).</p></div><table style="margin-bottom: 1em" cellpadding="3" class="not_ep_block" border="0"><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Item Type:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Article</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Subjects:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/270402.html">270000 Biological Sciences &gt; 270400 Botany &gt; 270402 Plant Physiology</a><br /><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/270400.html">270000 Biological Sciences &gt; 270400 Botany</a></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ID Code:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">2637</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited By:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><span class="ep_name_citation"><span class="person_name">Scholarly Publications Librarian</span></span></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited On:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">10 Dec 2007 09:11</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Last Modified:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">09 Jan 2008 02:30</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ePrint Statistics:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a target="ePrintStats" href="/es/index.php?action=show_detail_eprint;id=2637;">View statistics for this ePrint</a></td></tr></table><p align="right">Repository Staff Only: <a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/cgi/users/home?screen=EPrint::View&amp;eprintid=2637">item control page</a></p>
