Present and potential uses of the natural abundance of stable isotopes in plant science, with illustrations from the marine environment

The use of stable isotope natural abundance measurements in plant ecophysiological research is discussed in the context of studies of ¹³C/¹²C ratios in marine plants, with emphasis on the uniqueness of the information given by natural abundance measurements and of the importance of complementary data obtained by other techniques in making full use of the natural abundance data. (1) Inorganic C acquisition and assimilation in marine plants can involve diffusive entry of CO₂, or the occurrence of a CO₂-concentrating mechanism frequently involving active HCO₃^? influx. For diffusive CO₂ entry, the δ¹³C measurements can give unique information on the fractional limitation of photosynthesis by CO₂ transport which, with photosynthetic rate measurements, can be used to compute transport conductances. For active HCO₃^?, influx, the δ¹³C values uniquely permit computation of the ratio of the bidirection fluxes (influx/efflux) which, with photon yield data, can be used to given information on the mechanism of the efflux. The analyses are absolutely dependent on external (non-δ¹³C) data distinguishing between diffusive CO₂ entry and the occurrence of a CO₂ concentrating mechanism. (2) δ¹³C measurements on marine photolithotrophs and on members of other trophic levels collected from the sea can give unique data on food webs, with measurements of δ values for other isotopes and compositional data adding precision to the interpretations. (3) Measurements of in situδ¹³C values for extant marine photolithotrophs, compared with δ¹³C values for ancient atmospheric CO₂, can give unique information on the mechanism of atmospheric CO₂ draw-down at the start of glacials; other information permits more concrete conclusions to be drawn.

温度、pH及CO2对白藜芦醇与过氧亚硝基相互作用的影响

白藜芦醇(Resveratrol,Res)是植物在遇到紫外线照射、真菌感染等不利条件下自然产生的抗毒素,存在于多种植物中,具有明显的消炎、抗癌、抗血栓等作用。本文利用紫外-可见光谱法研究了Res与过氧亚硝基阴离子(Peroxynitrite anion,ONOO-)的相互作用,提出了反应机理。研究了温度、pH及CO2对Res与ONOO-反应的影响,结果表明低温、偏碱性pH有利于反应的进行;CO2存在时Res仍能与ONOO-反应,但反应机理与前面不同。     

Seasonal CO2 exchange patterns of developing peach (Prunus persica) fruits in response to temperature, light and CO2 concentration

CO₂ exchange rates per unit dry weight, measured in the field on attached fruits of the late-maturing Cal Red peach cultivar, at 1200 μmol photons m^?2S^?1 and in dark, and photosynthetic rates, calculated by the difference between the rates of CO₂ evolution in light and dark, declined over the growing season. Calculated photosynthetic rates per fruit increased over the season with increasing fruit dry matter, but declined in maturing fruits apparently coinciding with the loss of chlorophyll. Slight net fruit photosynthetic rates ranging from 0. 087 ± 0. 06 to 0. 003 ± 0. 05 nmol CO₂ (g dry weight)^?1 S^?1 were measured in midseason under optimal temperature (15 and 20°C) and light (1200 μmol photons m^?2 S^?1) conditions. Calculated fruit photosynthetic rates per unit dry weight increased with increasing temperatures and photon flux densities during fruit development. Dark respiration rates per unit dry weight doubled within a temperature interval of 10°C; the mean seasonal O₁₀ value was 2. 03 between 20 and 30°C. The highest photosynthetic rates were measured at 35°C throughout the growing season. Since dark respiration rates increased at high temperatures to a greater extent than CO₂ exchange rates in light, fruit photosynthesis was apparently stimulated by high internal CO₂ concentrations via CO₂ refixation. At 15°C, fruit photosynthetic rates tended to be saturated at about 600 μmol photons m^?2 S^?1. Young peach fruits responded to increasing ambient CO₂ concentrations with decreasing net CO₂ exchange rates in light, but more mature fruits did not respond to increases in ambient CO₂. Fruit CO₂ exchange rates in the dark remained fairly constant, apparently uninfluenced by ambient CO₂ concentrations during the entire growing season. Calculated fruit photosynthetic rates clearly revealed the difference in CO₂ response of young and mature peach fruits. Photosynthetic rates of younger peach fruits apparently approached saturation at 370 μl CO₂1^?2. In CO₂ free air, fruit photosynthesis was dependent on CO₂ refixation since CO₂ uptake by the fruits from the external atmosphere was not possible. The difference in photosynthetic rates between fruits in CO₂-free air and 370 μl CO₂ 1^?1 indicated that young peach fruits were apparently able to take up CO₂ from the external atmosphere. CO₂ uptake by peach fruits contributed between 28 and 16% to the fruit photosynthetic rate early in the season, whereas photosynthesis in maturing fruits was supplied entirely by CO₂ refixation.

CO2和硝氮加富对龙须菜(Gracilaria lemaneiformis)生长、生化组分和营养盐吸收的影响

为了探讨大气CO2和海水硝氮浓度升高对龙须菜生理特性的影响,在实验室条件下把藻体于CoNo、C No、CoN 和C N 4种不同CO2和硝氮供应水平的处理中进行培养,15d后,分别测定各种不同培养条件下藻体的生长、色素含量、可溶性蛋白含量和营养盐吸收速率.结果表明:CO2或硝氮浓度增加都会使藻体生长加快,但当二者同时加富时对生长的促进作用没有表现出协同效应.不管是高氮还是低氮的培养条件,高浓度CO2都能使藻体的色素和可溶性蛋白的含量降低,而使硝酸还原酶活性升高;同时,在硝氮加富的条件下,高浓度CO2培养能够显著提高藻体的营养盐吸收速率.不管是高还是低的CO2浓度培养条件下,硝氮浓度增加都会使藻体的色素和可溶性蛋白含量以及营养盐吸收速率得到显著提高.这些结果说明,在大气CO2浓度升高或海水富营养化条件下,龙须菜的生长、硝酸还原酶活性和营养盐吸收速率都可能得到促进,而色素和可溶性蛋白的含量也会受到影响.

高浓度CO2培养条件下极大螺旋藻光抑制研究

以极大螺旋藻作为实验材料,研究了不同CO2浓度培养对螺旋藻光抑制和恢复的影响,结果表明由光抑制导致的光合速率下降,高浓度CO2比低浓度CO2培养程度小,在高浓度CO2条件下培养的极大螺旋藻,虽然在强光下也表现出光抑制,但与低浓度CO2相比,光合速率下降得较慢。这种现象在强光与弱光培养均存在,但强光培养时更明显。光抑制后的恢复实验表明,不同CO2浓度培养的极大螺旋藻,光系统光化学活性(Fv/Fm)在弱光下恢复较好,高光强、高浓度CO2培养的藻,恢复速度稍快;而在黑暗中,几乎没有恢复;在弱光和含氯霉素的条件下Fv/Fm均下降。由此可见,高CO2浓度可减轻极大螺旋藻的光抑制,但对其光抑制后的恢复影响不大。       

Soil respiration associated with plant succession at the meadow steppes in Songnen Plain,Northeast China

Aims Soil CO₂ emission from steppes is affected by soil properties and vegetation in different successional stages. Primary and secondary succession of plants frequently occurred at the meadow steppe in Songnen Plain, Northeast China, which indicates the large uncertainty associated with CO₂ emission in this environment. This study aims to investigate the temporal variations of soil respiration (Rs) and the effect of plant succession on cumulative soil CO₂ emission during the growing season.Methods Using a LI-6400 soil CO₂ flux system, Rs of five vegetation types which represented different stages of plant succession in meadow steppes of Songnen Plain, China, was investigated during the growing seasons of 2011 and 2012.Important findings Soil temperature (Ts) was the dominant controlling factor of Rs, which could explain ~64% of the change in CO₂ fluxes. The Q 10 values of Rs were ranged from 2.0 to 6.7, showing a decreasing trend with the plant successional stages. The cumulative CO₂ emission increased with the degree of vegetation succession and it averaged to 316±6g C m ?2 (ranges: 74.8±6.7 to 516.5±11.4g C m ?2) during the growing season. The magnitude of soil CO₂ emission during the growing season was positively correlated with aboveground plant biomass, soil organic carbon content and mean soil water content, while negatively linked to mean Ts, pH, electrical conductivity and exchangeable sodium percentages. The results implied that soil CO₂ emission increased with the development of plant communities toward more advanced stages. Our findings provided valuable information for understanding the variations of CO₂ emission in the process of vegetation succession.     

Differences between the flag leaf and the ear of a spring wheat cultivar (Triticum aestivum cv. Arkas) with respect to the CO2 response of assimilation, respiration and stomatal conductance

The CO₂- and H₂O-exchanges in the flag leaf and the ear of a spring wheat cultivar (Triticum aestivum L. cv. Arkas) were measured at CO₂ partial pressures, p_i(CO₂), between 8 and 400 Pa under high photosynthetic photon flux densities (2000 μmol m^?2 s^?1). The experiments were carried out on each organ separately while attached to the intact plant, from the time of ear emergence through senescence. To study the contribution of the kernels to the gas exchange of ears, experiments were also carried out on sterilized ears (treatment A), and on ears from which the kernels were removed (treatment B). Flag leaves and ears differed considerably with regard to CO₂-dependence of assimilation, response of stomata to varying p_a(CO₂), CO₂ compensation point (and its temperature dependence), dark respiration, and dissimilation in the light (i.e. CO₂ production which is not due to oxygenation of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate). The higher dark respiration of the ear originated mainly from the kernels and continued to some extent in the light. Thus, the CO₂ compensation point was attained at higher CO₂ partial pressures for the ear than for the flag leaf. The CO₂ uptake of the ear was not saturated at intercellular CO₂ partial pressures below 180 Pa CO₂, while that of the flag leaf reached saturation at about 80 Pa CO₂. CO₂-saturated rates of CO₂ uptake were 2.5 and 1.5 times the rates at natural CO₂ partial pressure for ear and flag leaf, respectively. The stomatal conductance decreased with rising CO₂ partial pressure above 35 Pa, in a more pronounced manner for the flag leaf than for the ear.
