A method of measuring CO2gas exchange (caused, for example, by microalgal photosynthesis on emersed tidal mudflats) using open flow IR gas analyzers is described. The analyzers are integrated in a conventional portable photosynthesis system (LI-6400, LI-COR, Nebraska, USA), which allows manipulation and automatic recording of environmental parameters at the field site. Special bottomless measuring chambers are placed directly on the surface sediment. Measurements are performed under natural light conditions and ambient CO2concentrations, as well as under different CO2concentrations in air, and various PAR radiation levels produced by a LED light source built into one of the measurement chambers. First results from tidal channel banks in a north Brazilian mangrove system at Bragança (Pará, Brazil) under controlled conditions show a marked response of CO2assimilation to CO2concentration and to irradiance. Photosynthesis at 100molmol–1CO2in air in one sample of a well-developed algal mat was saturated at 309mol photons m–2s–1, but increased with increasing ambient CO2concentrations (350 and 1000mol mol–1CO2) in the measuring chamber. Net CO2assimilation was 0.8mol CO2m–2s–1at 100mol mol–1CO2, 5.9mol CO2m–2s–1at 350mol mol–1CO2and 9.8mol CO2m–2s–1at 1000mol mol–1CO2. Compensation irradiance decreased and apparent photon yield increased with ambient CO2concentration. Measurements under natural conditions resulted in a quick response of CO2exchange rates when light conditions changed. We recommend the measuring system for rapid estimations of benthic primary production and as a valuable field research tool in connection with certain ecophysiological aspects under changing environmental conditions.  相似文献

In the field, photosynthesis of Acer saccharum seedlings was rarely light saturated, even though light saturation occurs at about 100 mol quanta m-2 s-1 photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD). PPFD during more than 75% of the daylight period was 50 mol m-2 s-1 or less. At these low PPFD's there is a marked interaction of PPFD with the initial slope (CE) of the CO2 response. At PPFD-saturation CE was 0.018 mol m-2 s-1/(l/l). The apparent quantum efficiency (incident PPFD) at saturating CO2 was 0.05–0.08 mol/mol. and PPFD-saturated CO2 exchange was 6–8 mol m-2 s-1. The ratio of internal CO2 concentration to external (C i /C a ) was 0.7 to 0.8 except during sunflecks when it decreased to 0.5. The decrease in C i /C a during sunflecks was the result of the slow response of stomates to increased PPFD compared to the response of net photosynthesis. An empirical model, which included the above parameters was used to simulate the measured CO2 exchange rate for portions of two days. Parameter values for the model were determined in experiments separate from the daily time courses being sumulated. Analysis of the field data, partly through the use of simulations, indicate that the elimination of sunflecks would reduce net carbon gain by 5–10%.List of symbols A measured photosynthetic rate under any set of conditions (mol m-2 s-1) - A m (atm) measured photosynthetic rate at saturating PPFD, 350 l/l CO2 and 21% (v/v) O2 (mol m-2 s-1) - C constant in equation of Smith (1937, 1938) - C a CO2 concentration in the air (l/l) - C i CO2 concentration in the intercellular air space (l/l) - C i /* C i corrected for CO2 compensation point, i.e., C i -I *, (l/l) - CE initial slope of the CO2 response of photosynthesis (mol m-2 s-1/(l/l)) - CEM CE at PPFD saturation - E transpiration rate (mmol m-2 s-1) - F predicted photosynthetic rate (mol m-2 s-1) - G leaf conductance to H2O (mol m-2 s-1) - I photosynthetic photon flux density (mol m-2 s-1) - N number of data points - P m predicted photosynthetic rate at saturating CO2 and given PPFD (mol m-2 s-1) - P ml predicted photosynthetic rate at saturating CO2 and PPFD (mol m-2 s-1) - R d residual respiratory rate (mol m-2 s-1) - T a air temperature (°C) - T l leaf temperature (°C) - V reaction velocity in equation of Smith (1937, 1938) - V max saturated reaction velocity in equation of Smith (1937, 1938) - VPA vapor pressure of water in the air (mbar/bar) - VPD vapor pressure difference between leaf and air (mbar/bar) - X substrate concentration in equation of Smith (1937, 1938) - initial slope of the PPFD response of photosynthesis at saturating CO2 (mol CO2/mol quanta) - (atm) initial slope of the PPFD response of photosynthesis at 340 l/l CO2 and 21% (v/v) O2 (mol CO2/mol quanta) - I * CO2 compensation point after correction for residual respiration (l/l) - PPFD compensation point (mol m-2 s-1)  相似文献

Transitions in growth irradiance level from 92 to 7 Em-2 s-1 and vice versa caused changes in the pigment contents and photosynthesis of Oscillatoria agardhii. The changes in chlorophyll a and C-phycocyanin contents during the transition from high to low irradiance (HL) were reflected in photosynthetic parameters. In the LH transition light utilization efficiencies of the cells changed faster than pigment contents. This appeared to be related to the lowering of light utilization efficiencies of photosynthesis. As a possible explanation it was hypothesized that excess photosynthate production led to feed back inhibition of photosynthesis. Time-scales of changes in the maximal rate of O2 evolution were discussed as changes in the number of reaction centers of photosystem II in relation to photosynthetic electron transport. Parameters that were subject to change during irradiance transitions obeyed first order kinetics, but hysteresis occurred when comparing HL with LH transients. Interpretation of first order kinetic analysis was discussed in terms of adaptive response vs changes in growth rate.Non-standard abbreviations Chla chlorophyll a - CPC C-phycocyanin - PS II photosystem II - PS I photosystem I - RC II reaction center of photosystem II - P photosynthetic O2-evolution - I irradiance, Em-2 s-1 - light utilization efficiency of cells, mmol O2·mg dry wt-1·h-1/Em-2 s-1 - light utilization efficiency of photosynthetic apparatus, mol O2·mol Chla -1·h-1/Em-2 s-1 - Pmax maximal rate of O2 evolution by cells, mol O2·mg dry wt-1·h-1 - Pmax maximal rate of O2 evolution by photosynthetic apparatus, mol O2·mol·Chla -1·h-1 - LL low light, E m-2 s-1 - HL high light, E m-2 s-1 - LH low to high light transition - HL high to low light transition - k specific rate of adaptation, h-1 - specific growth rate, h-1 - Q pool size of cell constituent, mol·mg dry wt-1 - q net synthesis rate of cell constituent, mol·mg dry wt-1·h-1  相似文献

Elevated CO2 (ambient + 35 Pa) increased shoot dry mass production in Avena fatua by 68% at maturity. This increase in shoot biomass was paralleled by an 81% increase in average net CO2 uptake (A) per unit of leaf area and a 65% increase in average A at the ecosystem level per unit of ground area. Elevated CO2 also increased ecosystem A per unit of biomass. However, the products of total leaf area and light-saturated leaf A divided by the ground surface area over time appeared to lie on a single response curve for both CO2 treatments. The approximate slope of the response suggests that the integrated light saturated capacity for leaf photosynthesis is 10-fold greater than the ecosystem rate. Ecosystem respiration (night) per unit of ground area, which includes soil and plant respiration, ranged from-20 (at day 19) to-18 (at day 40) mol m-2 s-1 for both elevated and ambient CO2 Avena. Ecosystem below-ground respiration at the time of seedling emergence was -10 mol m-2 s-1, while that occuring after shoot removal at the termination of the experiment ranged from -5 to-6 mol m-2 s-1. Hence, no significant differences between elevated and ambient CO2 treatments were found in any respiration measure on a ground area basis, though ecosystem respiration on a shoot biomass basis was clearly reduced by elevated CO2. Significant differences existed between leaf and ecosystem water flux. In general, leaf transpiration (E) decreased over the course of the experiment, possibly in response to leaf aging, while ecosystem rates of evapotranspiration (ET) remained constant, probably because falling leaf rates were offset by an increasing total leaf biomass. Transpiration was lower in plants grown at elevated CO2, though variation was high because of variability in leaf age and ambient light conditions and differences were not significant. In contrast, ecosystem evapotranspiration (ET) was significantly decreased by elevated CO2 on 5 out of 8 measurement dates. Photosynthetic water use efficiencies (A/E at the leaf level, A/ET at the ecosystem level) were increased by elevated CO2. Increases were due to both increased A at leaf and ecosystem level and decreased leaf E and ecosystem ET.  相似文献

The responses to irradiance of photosynthetic CO2 assimilation and photosystem 2 (PS2) electron transport were simultaneously studied by gas exchange and chlorophyll (Chl) fluorescence measurement in two-year-old apple tree leaves (Malus pumila Mill. cv. Tengmu No.1/Malus hupehensis Rehd). Net photosynthetic rate (P N) was saturated at photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD) 600-1 100 (mol m-2 s-1, while the PS2 non-cyclic electron transport (P-rate) showed a maximum at PPFD 800 mol m-2 s-1. With PPFD increasing, either leaf potential photosynthetic CO2 assimilation activity (Fd/Fs) and PS2 maximal photochemical activity (Fv/Fm) decreased or the ratio of the inactive PS2 reaction centres (RC) [(Fi – Fo)/(Fm – Fo)] and the slow relaxing non-photochemical Chl fluorescence quenching (qs) increased from PPFD 1 200 mol m-2 s-1, but cyclic electron transport around photosystem 1 (RFp), irradiance induced PS2 RC closure [(Fs – Fo)/Fm – Fo)], and the fast and medium relaxing non-photochemical Chl fluorescence quenching (qf and qm) increased remarkably from PPFD 900 (mol m-2 s-1. Hence leaf photosynthesis of young apple leaves saturated at PPFD 800 mol m-2 s-1 and photoinhibition occurred above PPFD 900 mol m-2 s-1. During the photoinhibition at different irradiances, young apple tree leaves could dissipate excess photons mainly by energy quenching and state transition mechanisms at PPFD 900-1 100 mol m-2 s-1, but photosynthetic apparatus damage was unavoidable from PPFD 1 200 mol m-2 s-1. We propose that Chl fluorescence parameter P-rate is superior to the gas exchange parameter P N and the Chl fluorescence parameter Fv/Fm as a definition of saturation irradiance and photoinhibition of plant leaves.  相似文献

Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum was grown on a mineral salts medium in a fermenter gassed with H2 and CO2, which were the sole carbon and energy sources. Under the conditions used the bacterium grew exponentially. The dependence of the growth rate () on the concentration of H2 and CO2 in the incoming gas and the dependence of the growth yield ( ) on the growth rate were determined at pH 7 (the pH optimum) and 65° C (the temperature optimum).The curves relating growth rate to the H2 and CO2 concentration were hyperbolic. From reciprocal plots apparent K s values for H2 and CO2 and max were obtained: app. = 20%; app. = 11%; = 0.69 h-1; t (max)=1 h. was 1.6 g mol-1 and almost independent of the growth rate, when the rate of methane formation was not limited by the supply of either H2 or CO2. The yield increased to near 3 g mol-1 when H2 or CO2 were limiting. These findings indicate that methane formation and growth are less tightly coupled at high concentrations of H2 or CO2 in the medium than at low concentrations. The physiological significance of these findings is discussed.

Effects of elevated CO2 (700 L L–1) and a control (350 L L–1 CO2) on the productivity of a 3-year-old ryegrass/white clover pasture, and on soil biochemical properties, were investigated with turves of a Typic Endoaquept soil in growth chambers. Temperature treatments corresponding to average winter, spring, and summer conditions in the field were applied consecutively to all of the turves. An additional treatment, at 700 L L–1 CO2 and a temperature 6°C higher throughout than in the other treatments, was included.Under the same temperature conditions, overall herbage yields in the 700 L L–1 CO2 treatment were ca. 7% greater than in the control at the end of the summer period. Root mass (to ca 25 cm depth) in the 700 L L–1 CO2 treatment was then about 50% greater than in the control, but in the 700 L L–1 CO2+6°C treatment it was 6% lower than in the control. Based on decomposition results, herbage from the 700 L L–1+6°C treatment probably contained the highest proportion of readily decomposable components.Elevated CO2 had no consistent effect on soil total C and N, microbial C and N, or extractable C concentrations in any of the treatments. Under the same temperature conditions, it did, however, enhance soil respiration (CO2-C production) and invertase activity. The effects of elevated CO2 on rates of net N mineralization were less distinct, and the apparent availability of N for the sward was not affected. Under elevated CO2, soil in the higher-temperature treatment had a higher microbial C:N ratio; it also had a greater potential to degrade plant materials.Data interpretation was complicated by soil spatial variability and the moderately high background levels of organic matter and biochemical properties that are typical of New Zealand pasture soils. More rapid cycling of C under CO2 enrichment is, nevertheless, indicated. Futher long-term experiments are required to determine the overall effect of elevated CO2 on the soil C balance.  相似文献

Measurement of the light response of photosynthetic CO2 uptake is often used as an implement in ecophysiological studies. A method is described to calculate photosynthetic parameters, such as the maximum rate of whole electron transport and dissimilative respiration in the light, from the light response of CO2 uptake.

ARKAS) are shown.Abbreviations and symbols A net photosynthesis rate - D 1 rate of dissimilative respiration occurring in the light - f loss factor - I incident PPFD - I effective absorbed PPFD - J rate of whole electron transport - J m maximum rate of whole electron transport - p c intercellular CO2 partial pressure - PPFD photosynthetic photon flux density - q effectivity factor for the use of light (electrons/quanta) - absorption coefficient - I * CO2 compensation point in the absence of dissimilative respiration (bar) - II conversion factor for calculation of CO2 uptake from the rate of whole electron transport - convexity factor Gas-exchange rates relate to the projective area and are given in mol·m-2·s-1.

Endogenous and xenobiotic sulphur-containing convulsant and non-convulsant compounds containing structural moieties of, or bearing a structural resemblance to, GABA and homocysteine were tested in binding studies for their potency in displacing the GABA-mimetic [3H]muscimol from specific, high-affinity sites (K d=3.6 nM;B max=3.94 pmol/mg protein) on freeze-thawed, Triton-treated calf-brain synaptic membranes. The xenobiotic convulsants, 4-mercaptobutyric acid (MBA), 3-mercaptopropionic acid (3-MPA) and 2-mercaptopropionic acid (2-MPA) were found to be two-site competitive inhibitors exhibiting apparent inhibition affinity constants (K i app ) of 5000 M, 3750 M, and 4800 M, respectively; while homocysteic acid (K i app =4800 M) was shown to be a one-site partial competitive inhibitor. Intermediary metabolites of methionine: S-adenosyl-l-homocysteine,l-cysteine, the convulsantl-homocysteine, and its non-convulsant disulphide oxidation product, homocystine, were found to be one-site partial competitive inhibitors exhibitingK i app values of 5750 M, 8350 M, 5000 M, and 510 M, respectively. The endogenous anticonvulsant neuroeffector, taurine, and the tripeptide, reduced glutathione (GSH) were shown to be, respectively, one-site (K i=20 M) and two-site (K i app =4300 M) competitive inhibitors of [3H]muscimol binding. These findings are discussed with regard to a previously proposed mechanism for the convulsant action of homocysteine.  相似文献

The effects of the average light irradiance (I) on growth and nitrate uptake kinetics of the cyanobacterium Oscillatoria agardhii, in nitrate-limited chemostat cultures, were studied. Light was nonsaturating for I <9.4 Wm–2, for all growth rates () studied. However, was throughout limited by the availability of nitrate. Under light-saturating conditions the kinetics of nitrate-limited growth could be adequately described by both the Monod and Droop equations. Under light-non-saturating conditions the internal nitrogen content (Q) was a function of both and I, for which new formulas were derived. The high uptake capacity (V max) of nitrate-limited cells was independent of , but was significantly increased for cells growing at I <9.4 Wm–2. The half-saturation constant for nitrate uptake (K s u ) increased with increasing , but was independent of the prevailing light conditions. The effects of light during nitrate-limited growth were associated with the regulation in the nitrogen-containing pigments.The results reported herein have important consequences for the use of Q, K s u and V max values as indicators of nutrient-deficiency of natural populations.  相似文献

The effect of long-term exposure to elevated levels of CO2 on biomass partitioning, net photosynthesis and starch metabolism was examined in cotton. Plants were grown under controlled conditions at 350, 675 and 1000 l l-1 CO2. Plants grown at 675 and 1000 l l-1 had 72% and 115% more dry weight respectively than plants grown at 350 l l-1. Increases in weight were partially due to corresponding increases in leaf starch. CO2 enrichment also caused a decrease in chlorophyll concentration and a change in the chlorophyll a/b ratio. High CO2 grown plants had lower photosynthetic capacity than 350 l l-1 grown plants when measured at each CO2 concentration. Reduced photosynthetic rates were correlated with high internal (non-stomatal) resistances and higher starch levels. It is suggested that carbohydrate accumulation causes a decline in photosynthesis by feedback inhibition and/or physical damage at the chloroplast level.Abbreviations Ci internal CO2 concentration - Chl chlorophyll - DMSO dimethylsulfoxide - HSD honestly significant difference (procedure) - MCW methanolchloroform-water - Pi inorganic phosphate - S.E.M. standard error of mean  相似文献

Single leaf photosynthetic characteristics of Alnus glutinosa, A. incana, A. rubra, Elaeagnus angustifolia, and E. umbellata seedlings conditioned to ambient sunlight in a glasshouse were assessed. Light saturation occurred between 930 and 1400 mol m-2s-1 PAR for all species. Maximum rates of net photosynthesis (Pn) measured at 25°C ranged from 12.8 to 17.3 mol CO2m-2s-1 and rates of dark respiration ranged from 0.74 to 0.95 mol CO2m-2s-1. These values of leaf photosynthetic variables are typical of early to midsuccessional species. The rate of Pn measured at optimal temperature (20°C) and 530mol m-2s-1 PAR was significantly (p<0.01) correlated with leaf nitrogen concentration (r=0.69) and negatively correlated with the mean area of a leaf (r=–0.64). We suggest that the high leaf nitrogen concentration and rate of Pn observed for Elaeagnus umbellata and to a lesser degree for E. angustifolia are genetic adaptations related to their crown architecture.Abbreviations Pn net photosynthesis  相似文献

A statistical analysis of protein conformations in terms of the distance between residues, represented by their C atoms, is presented. We consider four factors that contribute to the determination of the distanced i,i+k between a given pair ofith and(i+k)th residues in the native conformation of a globular protein: (1) the distancek along the chain, (2) the size of the protein, (3) the conformational states of theith to(i+k)th residues, and (4) the amino acid types of the and(i+k)th residues. In order to account for the dependence on the distancek along the chain, the statistics are taken for three ranges, viz., short, medium, and long ranges (k8; 9k20; andk21; respectively). In the statistics of short-range distances, a mean distanceD k and its standard deviationS k are calculated for each value ofk, with and without taking into account the conformational states of all residues fromi toi+k (factors 1 and 3). As an Appendix, the relations for converting from the distances between residues into other conformational parameters are discussed. In the statistics of long-range distances, a reduced distanced* ij (the actual distance divided by the radius of gyration) is used to scale the data so that they become independent of protein size, and then a mean reduced distanceD l (a, a) and its standard deviation l (a, a) are calculated for each amino acid pair (a, a) (factors 2 and 4). The effect of the neighboring residues along the chain on the value of the distanced* ij is explored by a linear regression analysis between the actual reduced distanced* ij and the mean value over theD l for all possible pairs of residues in the two segments of the (i–2)th to the (i+2)th and the (j–2)th to the (j+2)th residues. The effect is assessed in terms of the tangentA l (a, a) of the calculated regression line for each amino acid pair (a, a). In the statistics of medium-range distances, only factors 1 and 4 are considered, to simplify the analysis. The scaled distanced i,i+k =(d i,i+k -D k )/S k is used to eliminate the dependence onk, the distance along the chain. The propertiesD m (a, a), m (a, a) andA m (a, a) corresponding toD l (a, a), l (a, a), andA l (a, a), and also calculated for each amino acid pair (a, a). The results are interpreted as follows: the smaller values ofD l (a, a) andD m (a, a) indicate a preference of the pair (a, a) for a contact (e.g., pairs between hydrophobic amino acids, and pairs of Cys with aromatic amino acids), and the larger values of these quantities indicate a preference for distant mutual location (e.g., pairs between strong hydrophilic amino acids); the smaller values of l (a, a) and m (a, a) indicate a strong preference for either contact or noncontact (e.g., pairs between hydrophobic amino acids, and pairs between strong hydrophobic and hydrophilic amino acids, respectively), and the larger values of these quantities indicate the ambivalent/neutral nature of the preference for contact and noncontact (e.g., pairs containing Ser or Thr); the smaller values ofA l (a, a) andA m (a, a) indicate that the distance of an (a, a) pair is determined independently of the amino acid character of the neighboring residues along the chain (e.g., some pairs of Cys or Met with other amino acids) and the larger values of these quantities indicare that such amino acid character contributes strongly to the determination of the distance (e.g., pairs containing Ser or Thr, and pairs between amino acids with small side chains). The difference between the statistics for the long- and medium-range distances is also discussed; the former reflect the difference between the hydrophobic and hydrophilic character of the residues, but the latter cannot be easily interpretable only in terms of hydrophobicity and hydrophilicity. The data analyzed here are used in the optimization of an object function to compute protein conformation in a subsequent paper.  相似文献

Dedifferentiated and differentiated tissue cultures ofArtemisia annua L. for artemisinin production were carried out. The calluses were initiated on MS medium supplemented with sucrose (30 g l-1), myoinositol (100 mg l-1) and RT vitamins. The auxins used were naphtaleneacetic acid (NAA), indoleacetic acid (IAA), indolebutyric acid (IBA) and 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-d). These were added to the basal medium either singly or in combination. The best results were obtained with 2.4-d (4.5 M : 0.02 d-1) and NAA (5.4 M : 0.06 d-1). Cell suspensions were established on the same media without agar. Suspension cultures showed different morphological characteristics according to the plant growth regulator supplied. Organized cultures were initiated from callus obtained on 2,4-d (4.5 M) and from bud cultures. Medium containing 6-benzylaminepurine (BA) (8.9 M)+NAA (0.54 M); Zeatin (45.62 M)+NAA (5.37 M) or BA (8.9 M) stimulated both organogenesis in callus (frequency of induction =50%) and semi-organized tissue in shoot buds. BA (13.32 M)+NAA (1.08 M) or BA (13.32 M) only stimulated multiple shoot cultures (frequency of induction =80%). Regarding artemisinin content, while the values obtained were 1.13 and 0.78 mg gDW-1 in primary callus, artemisinin was not detected in cell suspension and only traces of it were found in multiple shoot cultures.  相似文献

We determined for Vicia faba L the influence of nitrogen uptake and accumulation on the values of photon saturated net photosynthetic rate (P Nmax), quantum yield efficiency (), intercellular CO2 concentration (C i), and carboxylation efficiency (C e). As leaf nitrogen content (NL) increased, the converged onto a maximum asymptotic value of 0.0664±0.0049 mol(CO2) mol(quantum)–1. Also, as NL increased the C i value fell to an asymptotic minimum of 115.80±1.59 mol mol–1, and C e converged onto a maximum asymptotic value of 1.645±0.054 mol(CO2) m–2 s–1 Pa–1 and declined to zero at a NL-intercept equal to 0.596±0.096 g(N) m–2. fell to zero for an NL-intercept of 0.660±0.052 g(N) m–2. As NL increased, the value of P Nmax converged onto a maximum asymptotic value of 33.400±2.563 mol(CO2) m–2 s–1. P N fell to zero for an NL-intercept of 0.710±0.035 g(N) m–2. Under variable daily meteorological conditions the values for NL, specific leaf area (L), root mass fraction (Rf), P Nmax, and remained constant for a given N supply. A monotonic decline in the steady-state value of Rf occurred with increasing N supply. L increased with increasing N supply or with increasing NL.  相似文献

Whilst reliable estimates of chiasma frequencies can usually not be obtained, the probability (b) of a chromosome arm to be bound by at least one chiasma can often be determined. In the absence of interference this probability equals (1–e –2), where 2 is the average chiasma frequency of the chromosome arm and the average crossover frequency or map length. In the presence of interference is shown to retain its genetic meaning as an additive metric that may describe the chromosome arm or other distinctive chromosome segment in terms of genetic recombination. It is a form of potential map length, comparable to, but numerically different from the regular map length. It is termed provisionally crossing-over potential.A chromosome with armsm andn with crossing-over potentials and will form ring bivalents with a frequency (1–e –2).(1–e –2); open bivalents with a frequency (1–e –2).e –2+(1–e –2).e –2; univalent pairs with a frequencye –2.e –2. Estimates of these frequencies yield equations from which and may be solved. In rye (Secale cereale) their ratio (q) is approximately two and differs from the mitotic arm length ratio of 1.4, indicating localization of chiasmata in the long arms.Graphs are given to show how, with constantq, the relation between the probabilitiesb m andb n of the two arms being bound changes with changing averageb.Data are presented on chiasma frequencies in M I, and compared with the frequencies expected in the absence of interference to give an impression of the degree of interference. Apparent fusion of chiasmata simulates interference.  相似文献

Summary The rate of CO2 assimilation at light saturation and an intercellular CO2 concentration of 350 l l-1 (photosynthetic capacity), measured in leaves of Eucalyptus pauciflora, E. behriana, E. delegatensis and Acacia melanoxylon, declined over the course of cloudless days under naturally varying environmental conditions as well as under constant optimal conditions for high CO2 uptake. Since the capacity did not recover during the light period, it was different from the midday depression of gas exchange. The change appeared to be caused neither by the diurnal variation of total leaf water potential, by photoinhibition of redox-reaction centres in photosystems nor by changes in the intrinsic properties of Ribulose-bisphosphate carboxylase-oxygenase. The decline was more pronounced in winter than in summer. It was related to the duration of illumination or the cumulative carbon gain. It was reversible in the following dark phase, and it did not occur on changeable days with short peaks of high light.Despite the decline in photosynthetic capacity, the initial slope of the CO2 response of net photosynthesis, as obtained at low intercellular CO2 concentrations, remained constant during the day, but declined at night when photosynthetic capacity recovered. In all cases stomatal conductance varied in parallel with photosynthetic capacity. The relevance of changes in photosynthetic capacity for the intercellular CO2 concentration is discussed.Abbreviations and symbols A CO2 assimilation - ABA abscisic acid - Ac350 photosynthetic capacity at ci=350l l-1 - ci intercellular CO2 concentration - g leaf conductance to water vapour - I photon flux density (irradiance) - P air pressure - Pi inorganic phosphate - Rd net CO2 release at * - Rubisco Ribulose-bisphosphate carboxylase-oxygenase - RuBP Ribulose-bisphosphate - T leaf temperature - w leaf-to-air water vapour concentration difference - A/ci carboxylation efficiency at low ci - * light-independent CO2 compensation point - total leaf water potential  相似文献

Growth rate estimates () of phytoplankton populations that were sampled from nitrogen-limited continuous cultures and then incubated for short durations in batch culture with added14C-HCO3 were significantly different than steady-state growth rates () for 3 of 5 marine phytoplankton species. Two diatoms,Thalassiosira weissflogii andChaetoceros simplex, displayed virtually identical growth rates (=) over a wide range of, whereas for a third diatom,Phaeodactylum tricornutum, was overestimated by an average of 40% compared to. In contrast, was underestimated by the14C technique for the two remaining species: up to 40% at a steady-state of 1.0 day–1 for the chlorophyteDunaliella tertiolecta and up to 100% at of 1.4 day–1 for the haptophytePavlova lutheri. For the latter two species the divergence between and appeared to increase with increasing steady-state. A simple model of labeled and total carbon flow between the aqueous phase and cellular biomass was constructed to demonstrate that respiration was negligible when=, but was significant when>. In the cases in which<, a rapid physiological alteration presumably took place once the steady state was disturbed and cells were placed in the incubation chambers, which perhaps was related to the nutritional state of the cultures at the time of sampling. Questions thus are raised regarding our ability to measure accurately primary productivity from shipboard experiments with confined samples of phytoplankton from nutrient-impoverished waters that probably are less hardy than the laboratory cultures used in these studies.  相似文献
