LICOR LI6800: Introduction to LICOR Photosynthesis Machine Pengenalan Kepada Alat Fotosintesis 4/4


Delivered on: 11MAY 2023


This video demonstrates how to measure photosynthesis in three different tropical plant species using the LI-6800 Portable Photosynthesis System. 🌿 We'll take you on a field trip to Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM) to measure photosynthetic rates in:

  • Janda Kaya (Bryophyllum pinnatum): A succulent plant known for its medicinal properties.

  • A Tropical Tree Species: Located near the bus stop at the UPM library.

  • Bamboo: A fast-growing grass species found around the UPM campus.


What you'll learn:

  • Field Techniques: We'll demonstrate how to set up the LI-6800 for field measurements, including selecting suitable leaves, clamping them in the chamber, and configuring environmental parameters.

  • Measuring Photosynthetic Rates: See how the LI-6800 measures key photosynthetic parameters, such as assimilation rate, stomatal conductance, and transpiration rate.

  • Species Comparisons: We'll compare the photosynthetic rates of the three different plant species, discussing potential reasons for any observed differences.

  • Midday Depression: We'll discuss the phenomenon of midday depression, where photosynthetic rates can decline during the hottest part of the day, and its relevance to tropical plants.



Keywords: Photosynthesis, LI-6800, tropical plants, field measurements, assimilation rate, stomatal conductance, transpiration, midday depression, plant physiology, ecology, science education, UPM, Malaysia.
