Seeley, E J

An apple orchard can be a very efficient mechanism for harvesting and storing energy in a usable form. The challenge is to define how the genetic, microclimatic, soil, water and cultural practice interactions limit the productive potential of apple plantings and at the same time to look ahead toward increasing the efficiency of the plant to assume continued increases in productivity for the future. Five papers were presented as summaries of some of the current and past research efforts into the factors affecting apple tree photosynthesis. (DP).
