Photosynthesis in Dynamic Environments

Type: Presentation

Description:
Plants are sessile organisms that have to adapt to rapidly changing environmental conditions to survive. A key part of this is the response of photosynthesis to dynamic environmental changes. Photosynthesis is easily measured using non-invasive techniques, allowing us to visualize how living plants respond to their environments. This presentation will demonstrate how plant photosynthesis responds to a variety of classical environmental stresses.
