• Label: Leaf photosynthetic phosphorus use efficiency during Asat measurement (PPUE)
• Entity URI: https://w3id.org/APD/traits/trait_0020713
• Type: numeric
• Definition: The ratio [PATO:0001470] of a leaf's [PO:0025034] photosynthetic rate [TO:0001015] to its phosphorus [CHEBI:28659] content, with the photosynthesis measurements made on leaves which are saturated [NCIT:C61427] by photosynthetically active radiation [ENVO:01001864] and which are exposed to ambient [NCIT:C62306] atmospheric carbon dioxide [ENVO:01000451] concentrations [PATO:0000033].;The ratio of photosynthesis (CO2 assimilation rate) to leaf phosphorus content, where photosynthesis has been measured in a leaf exposed to saturating light (photosynthetically active radiation) levels and ambient carbon dioxide concentrations; PPUE.
• Additional comments: Leaf phosphorus content and photosynthetic rate can be record either per unit leaf area or per unit leaf mass, but both must have the same denominator.
• units: umol{CO2}/g{P}/s
• allowable range: 1 - 10000 umol{CO2}/g{P}/s
