Using an elegant experimental approach involving iodine to treat leaves from con-specifics grown in sunlight and in the dark, Sachs (1865) proved his concept of how plants use sunlight to manufacture their living substance.
May 17, 2018 · At the time, Sachs also noted that these low temperatures are limiting to other processes in plants such as the growth of green tissue or the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide. ...
Jan 1, 2011 · Sachs summed up the early work on photosynthesis (but said nothing about the role of light) (1890 translation of Sachs , p. 491): “The discoveries of Priestley, Ingen-Housz and Senebier, and the quantitative determinations of de Saussure in the years between 1774 and 1804, supplied the proof that the green parts of plants, and the leaves ...

Abstract. Agricultural and biological engineering extends beyond terrestrial farming and plant research. Since the advent of the space age, there has been a desire to provide capabilities for plant growth in the unique environment of space, both to use reduced gravity as a new variable to elucidate plant physiological processes and to develop the foundation of plant-based regenerative life ...
Jul 6, 2015 · However, the second concept, which has also been called “Pasteur's quadrant” (Strokes 1997), 21 is not new – it was proposed for the first time by Sachs (1859) 17, and this principle of “use-inspired basic plant research” is described in detail in his Experimental-Physiologie der Pflanzen (Sachs 1865) 5 (Fig. 1).
