Combining gas exchange and chlorophyll a fluorescence measurements to analyze the photosynthetic activity of drip-irrigated cotton under different soil water deficits

Gas exchange and chlorophyll a fluorescence were measured to study the effects of soil water deficit (75, 60 and 45% of field capacity, FC) on the photosynthetic activity of drip-irrigated cotton under field conditions. At light intensities above 1 200 μmol m−2 s−1, leaf net photosynthetic rate (Pn)...
