Ecophysiological aspects of sun and shade leaves of Ponkan tangerine (Citrus reticulata Blanco)

The Ponkan tangerine (Citrus reticulata) has wide acceptance by consumers due to several properties; it is a colorful, sweet, and easy to peel fruit. The purpose of this study was to evaluate ecophysiological aspects of the response of plants of Ponkan tangerine to shading, according to relative int...
