Abstract It has been made evident by the experiments recently published by one of us, that the amount of carbon-dioxide assimilation which a leaf is actually performing, or is capable of performing, is profoundly affected by the temperature of the assimilating cells. Neglect of this factor has been a fruitful source of confusion in attempts to estimate the effect of different intensities of light upon the process of assimilation.
