Effects of irradiance on non-structural carbohydrates, growth, and hypoglycemic activity of Rhynchelytrum repens (Willd.) C.E. Hubb. (Poaceae) Efeitos da irradiância sobre o crescimento, carboidratos não-estrututrais e atividade hipoglicemiante de Rhynchelytrum repens (Willd.) C.E. Hubb. (Poaceae)

Irradiance is a crucial factor in plant development. Different radiant energy levels cause different responses related to plant growth and the production and distribution of dry matter. Considering the relationship between light availability and metabolism of carbohydrates and derived compounds, the...
