Influence of solar radiation and leaf angle on leaf xanthophyll concentrations in mangroves

Mangroves have similar xanthophyll cycle components/chlorophyll ratios [i.e. (V + A + Z)/chl] to other plant species. (V + A + Z)/chl ratios were sensitive to the light environment in which leaves grew, decreasing as light levels decreased over a vertical transect through a forest canopy. The (V + A...
