Why an oscillatory behavior of the photosynthetic activity of plants as a function of time (days)?

Fernando Gordillo-Delgado @Fernando-Gordillo-Delgado

29 January 2020 0 8K Report

In several experiments with different plants we have noticed this behavior of the oxygen evolution rate, measured daily at the same time of day, and although there are several points of view, I would like to know other opinions.
