The change of chlorophyll content in Syringa vulgaris L. depending on shadow and duration
Journal Title: Scholars Academic Journal of Biosciences - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 4
Abstract
Abstract: Various morphological and physiological characteristics of plants undergo change at different light levels. Coloration in plants is provided by pigments. The most important pigment is chlorophyll. It absorbs luminous energy and converts it to chemical energy. In this way, it allows photosynthesis where oxygen and food stuffs needed for all other living beings to live are produced. Apart from that, chlorophyll is the pigment that gives green color to plants. Chlorophyll content in plants changes due to plant type, cultivation area conditions, time, and so on. This study aims at determining the change of chlorophyll content in Syringa vulgaris, which is frequently used in landscaping works, in different shade environments and times. To this end, 5 different study plots were established; and three of these study plots were covered with different ratios of shade (80%, 60%, and 40%). The other study plots were established outdoor and in a greenhouse. Throughout the research process, 7 measurements were carried out at certain intervals, and it was aimed to determine change in chlorophyll content depending on environment and time. Keywords: Syringa vulgaris L., chlorophyll, shadow
