Carbón balance of PGR-IV-treated cotton plants

Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) is a plant of tropical origin that is planted throughout the world for fiber production. Once planted it may be subjected to several environmental constraints like water stress, low and high temperatures, and nutrient shortage, conditions under which growth is affected...
