dc.description.abstract | Yield of coffee is affected by some anatomical- as well as morphological properties and
physiological activities. Coffee is a C3 plant that has a photosynthetic saturation at a certain
light intensity. To know some anatomical-, morphological- and physiological characteristics
those affect growth and yield of Robusta coffee, a study has been done at the Indonesian
Coffee and Cocoa Research Institute, Jember, East Java, Indonesia. Fully expanded leaves of
eight clones have been measured on their area, stomata density, stomata pores area, palisade
index, chlorophyll index, and photosynthetic rate. Clones measured were BP 42, BP 358, BP
409, BP 534, BP 936, BP 939, BP 961 and SA 237. Measurement was done at Kaliwining
Experimental Station, Jember, Indonesia, at the altitude of 45 m above sea level.
Measurement was stressed to describe the dynamic response curve model and to correlate
yield to other parameters. The most dominant parameter that affect yield was determined. | en_US |
