Plant Architecture, Photosynthetic Responses, and Population Biology in the Palms Socratea Durissima and Scheelea Zonensis on Barro Colorado Island, Panama (Physiological, Tropical)
Abstract
dc:descriptionI investigated the role of canopy architecture and biomass allocation in the population biology of the palms Socratea durissima and Scheelea zonensis on Barro Colorado Island, Panama. Canopy architecture and biomass allocation change as plants mature, and can affect light interception and carbon budgets. Thus plant growth forms are expected to affect the light requirements of plants, and are therefore expected to influence demographic patterns.
