Abstract
In leaves of Panicum maximum var. trichoglume cv. Petrie developed in controlled environment under comparatively low constant flux densities of photosynthetically active radiation the light response curves for net photosynthesis were similar to those in leaves developed in a glasshouse or outdoors at higher and varying light intensities. Maximum rate of net photosynthesis was independent of the way in which the light was supplied provided that the daily total photosynthetically active radiation exceeded about 700 J/cm2 and the flux density in controlled environment exceeded about 100 W/m2; light response curves of leaves grown under such conditions could thus be representative of outdoor light regimes
