Inflorescence characteristics, seed composition, and allometric relationships predicting seed yields in the biomass crop Cynara cardunculus
Archontoulis, S. V.; Struik, P. C.; Yin, X.; Bastiaans, L.; Vos, J.; Danalatos, N. G. (2010)Cynara (Cynara cardunculus) is a perennial C(3) herb that has its potential as bioenergy crop. This paper aims (a) to derive empirical relationships to predict cynara seed yield per head and per unit area, avoiding laborious ... -
Leaf photosynthesis and respiration of three bioenergy crops in relation to temperature and leaf nitrogen: how conserved are biochemical model parameters among crop species?
Archontoulis, S. V.; Yin, X.; Vos, J.; Danalatos, N. G.; Struik, P. C. (2012)Given the need for parallel increases in food and energy production from crops in the context of global change, crop simulation models and data sets to feed these models with photosynthesis and respiration parameters are ... -
Phenological growth stages of Cynara cardunculus: codification and description according to the BBCH scale
Archontoulis, S. V.; Struik, P. C.; Vos, J.; Danalatos, N. G. (2010)Cynara cardunculus is a herbaceous perennial crop known from ancient times. During the last three decades this thistle has intensively been researched and recently became a commercial crop for biofuel production. As there ... -
Temporal dynamics of light and nitrogen vertical distributions in canopies of sunflower, kenaf and cynara
Archontoulis, S. V.; Vos, J.; Yin, X.; Bastiaans, L.; Danalatos, N. G.; Struik, P. C. (2011)To enhance eco-physiological and modelling studies, we quantified vertical distributions of light and nitrogen in canopies of three Mediterranean bio-energy crops: sunflower (Helianthus annuus), kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus) ...
