Question: What are plant growth parameters?...
What are plant growth parameters?
Solution
Multicellular organisms, mainly photosynthetic of kingdom Plantae, are known as plants. They are autotrophs i.e., they can produce their own food by the process called photosynthesis. This process refers to the conversion of light energy to chemical energy, with the help of chlorophyll. They are not dependent on any other organism for food. Oxygen gas has evolved as a byproduct.
Complete answer:
Multicellular organisms, mainly photosynthetic of kingdom Plantae, are known as plants. They are autotrophs i.e., they can produce their own food by the process called photosynthesis. Green plants obtain their energy from sunlight and convert it into chemical energy with the help of chlorophyll. They are also known as primary producers and they come first in the food chain because all other organisms are dependent on the photosynthetic plants for food either directly or indirectly.
Method by which the growth of plants is conducted because of the significant loss in biomass of plants between harvest is known as the plant growth method. Plant growth parameters are:
absolute growth rate (g/day)
relative growth rate (RGR, g/day),’
net assimilation rate (NAR, g m2/ day),
leaf area ratio (LAR, m2/g),
fraction of newly assimilated mass that is allocated to leaf lamina production (flam, g/g) and,
daily fractional change in the average specific leaf area of plants (ρ/day).
Above mentioned are all of the plant growth parameters.
Note:
There are four major factors that can influence your plants' growth : Water, light, nutrients, and temperature. These four factors influence the plant's growth hormones, which determine whether the plant grows quickly or slowly.
