Physiological and ecological significance of sunflecks for dipterocarp seedlings by Leakey, A. D. B., Scholes, J. D., Press, M. C.

“…Irradiance is highly dynamic in many plant canopies. Photosynthesis during sunflecks provides 10–90% of daily carbon gain. The survivorship of tree seedlings…”

Will Elevated Carbon Dioxide Concentration Amplify the Benefits of Nitrogen Fixation in Legumes? by Rogers, Alistair, Ainsworth, Elizabeth A, Leakey, Andrew D.B

“…Growth at elevated [CO{sub 2}] stimulates photosynthesis and increases carbon (C) supply in all C3 species. A sustained and maximal stimulation in productivity…”
