Abstract
Biochemicel changes, in Phaseolus and Sorghum grown under different light intensities. Sampath. P and Kulandaivelu, C (Plant Physiology Lab. School of Blological Sciences, Madurai Kamraj University, Madurai 625021 India). Plant Physiol. SI Biochern. 9(2): 60.67, 1982. Effect of decreasing the light intensity to 33': and 9: of full sunlight on leaf mass accumulation and hiochen~icalc onstitutents has becn investigated i n a typical C3 (P~LISCOImIIuPn ro L.)a nd Cc (Sorghunm vulgure L.) species. Progressive decrease in the light intensity during growth brought about parallel change in the leaf mass accumulation as evidenced by lower fresh and dry weight per unit leaf arm. Analysis of biochemical constituents revealed drastic changes in the protein content and Increased starch hydrolytic activity. Contrary to most of the biochemical constituents, the pigment content increased with a decrease in the light intensity. ..............
