Method for determining plant total photosynthetic carbon assimilation capacity
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of ecological environment, in particular to a method for determining the assimilation ability of total photosynthetic carbon of a plant.
Background
In recent years, numerous experiments have demonstrated that plants can not only photosynthesize using carbon dioxide in the atmosphere as a substrate, but also photosynthesize using bicarbonate ions stored in leaves from the soil as a substrate. In view of the fact that the utilization capacity of the plant to the bicarbonate ions is not negligible, the method has important effects on accurately measuring the utilization shares of the plant to different exogenous inorganic carbon sources, measuring the total photosynthetic carbon assimilation capacity including carbon dioxide and bicarbonate ion assimilation, and accurately evaluating the productivity of the plant and screening a plant variety with high productivity.
Therefore, we propose a method for determining the total photosynthetic carbon assimilation ability of plants to solve the above problems.
