CIFOR–ICRAF publishes over 750 publications every year on agroforestry, forests and climate change, landscape restoration, rights, forest policy and much more – in multiple languages.

CIFOR–ICRAF addresses local challenges and opportunities while providing solutions to global problems for forests, landscapes, people and the planet.

We deliver actionable evidence and solutions to transform how land is used and how food is produced: conserving and restoring ecosystems, responding to the global climate, malnutrition, biodiversity and desertification crises. In short, improving people’s lives.

Photosynthesis performance in sweet almond [Prunus dulcis (Mill) D. Webb] exposed to supplemental uv-b radiation

Due to anthropogenic influences, solar UV-B irradiance at the earth's surface is increasing. To determine the effects of enhanced UV-B radiation on photosynthetic characteristics of Prunus dulcis, two year-old seedlings of the species were submitted to four levels of UV-B stress, namely 0 (UV-Bc), 4.42 (UV-B1), 7.32 (UV-B2) and 9.36 (UV-B3) kJ m-2. Effects of UV-B stress on a range of chlorophyll fluorescence parameters (Chl FPs), chlorophyll contents and photosynthetic gas exchange parameters were investigated. UV-B stress promoted an increase in F0 and F0 / Fm, and a decrease in Fv, Fv / Fm, Fv / F0, F0 / Fm due to its adverse effects on photosystem II activity. No significant change was observed for Fm. Enhanced UV-B radiation caused a significant inhibition of photosynthesis rate (A) at UV-B2 and UV-B3 levels and this was accompanied by a reduction in stomatal conductance (gs) and transpiration rate (E). The contents of Chl a, b, and total Chl content (a+b) were also significantly reduced at increase UV-B stress. In general, advers UV-B effects became significant at the highest tested radiation dose 9.36kj.m-2. The most sensitive indicators for UV-B stress were Fv / F0, Chl a content and A. Significant P
