Large variation in whole-plant water-use efficiency among tropical tree species

Cernusak, Lucas A.; Aranda, Jorge E.; Marshall, John D.; Winter, Klaus (2006)

Summary . It is well known that whole-plant water-use efficiency (transpiration efficiency of carbon gain, TEC) varies among plant species with different photosynthetic pathways. However, less is known of such variation ...
Transpiration efficiency of a tropical pioneer tree (Ficus insipida) in relation to soil fertility

Cernusak, Lucas A.; Winter, Klaus; Aranda, Jorge E.; Turner, Benjamin L.; Marshall, John D. (2007)

The response of whole-plant water-use efficiency, termed transpiration efficiency (TE), to variation in soil fertility was assessed in a tropical pioneer tree, Ficus insipida Willd. Measurements of stable isotope ratios ...
