Does leaf shedding increase the whole-plant carbon gain despite some nitrogen being lost with shedding?
When old leaves are shed, part of the nitrogen in the leaf is retranslocated to new leaves. This retranslocation will increase the whole-plant carbon gain when daily C gain : leaf N ratio (daily photosynthetic N-use efficiency, NUE) in the old leaf, expressed as a fraction of NUE in the new leaf, be...
