Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractResponses in Nitrogen Mass and Nitrogen Metabolism of Wild Sugarcane (Saccharum spontaneum L.) UV-B Radiation Under Field ConditionsYanqun Zu, Yuan Li, Haiyun Wang, Yongmei HeField experiments were conducted to evaluate effects of enhanced UV-B radiation (280-315 nm) on intraspecific responses in nitrogen mass and nitrogen metabolism of six wild sugarcane (Saccharum spontaneum L.) clones. The clones were collected from original sites with different altitudes (4-1780 m above sea-level) and latitudes (18-38°N). The supplemental UV-B radiation was 5.00 kJ⋅m-2, simulating a depletion of 20% stratospheric … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 7 Jan 2014 · 6,656 accessesView PDFCite
