  2. List of tree species by shade tolerance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tree_species_by...

    A list of tree species, grouped generally by biogeographic realm and specifically by bioregions, and shade tolerance. Shade-tolerant species are species that are able to thrive in the shade, and in the presence of natural competition by other plants. Shade-intolerant species require full sunlight and little or no competition.

    Don't blame the sun for your lack of a garden—these 30 shade-loving plants love the cool, covered spots in your yard and will bring vibrancy to your landscape.

  4. Shade tolerance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shade_tolerance

    In direct sunlight, plants face desiccation and exposure to UV rays, and must expend energy producing pigments to block UV light, and waxy coatings to prevent water loss. Plants adapted to shade have the ability to use far-red light (about 730 nm) more effectively than plants adapted to full sunlight. Most red light gets absorbed by the shade ...

  5. Shade avoidance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shade_avoidance

    Flattening of leaves in plants with normally curled leaves also increases surface area for light absorption. [10] If a mature plant becomes shaded, shade avoidance also often prompts changes in reproductive strategies. Plants may flower early, as it is unlikely that growing more structures will result in profitable nutrient gain in the short ...

  6. Photosynthetic efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photosynthetic_efficiency

    Many plants lose much of the remaining energy on growing roots. Most crop plants store ~0.25% to 0.5% of the sunlight in the product (corn kernels, potato starch, etc.). Photosynthesis increases linearly with light intensity at low intensity, but at higher intensity this is no longer the case (see Photosynthesis-irradiance curve). Above about ...

  7. Shade (shadow) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shade_(shadow)

    Full sun – more than five hours of direct sun per day. Part shade – two to five hours of direct sun, or all-day dappled sun (sunlight shining through open trees). Full shade – less than two hours of direct sun per day. Under a dense forest canopy, light intensity can be very low. Special adaptations produce the shade tolerance that allows ...

  8. Understory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Understory

    The canopy of a tropical forest is typically about 10 m (33 ft) thick, and intercepts around 95% of the sunlight. [1] The understory therefore receives less intense light than plants in the canopy and such light as does penetrate is impoverished in wavelengths of light that are most effective for photosynthesis.

  9. Shade tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shade_tree

    A group of Laysan albatrosses resting beneath the canopy of a fig, a common shade tree in many parts of the world.. A shade tree is a large tree whose primary role is to provide shade in the surrounding environment due to its spreading canopy and crown, where it may give shelter from sunlight in the heat of the summer for people who seek recreational needs in urban parks and house yards, and ...
