Maintaining higher leaf photosynthesis after heading stage could promote biomass accumulation in rice

Abstract Leaf photosynthetic rate changes across the growing season as crop plants age. Most studies of leaf photosynthesis focus on a specific growth stage, leaving the question of which pattern of photosynthetic dynamics maximizes crop productivity unanswered. Here we obtained high-frequency data...
