Effective Thickness and Resistance of the Air Boundary Layer Adjacent to Spherical Plant Parts 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Using existing heat transfer data a rather simple expressionis developed for the effective thickness of the boundary layerof air adjacent to spheres. The calculated boundary layer thicknessagreed fairly well with that determined for water vapour diffusionfrom a wet spherical surface 5.90 cm in diameter for wind velocitiesfrom 10 to 1000 cm s1. At a turbulence intensity representativeof field conditions (0.5), the measured boundary layer thicknessaveraged 11 per cent less than for a relatively low turbulenceintensity of 0.01. For wind velocities up to 100 cm s1,the resistance of the boundary layer for water vapour diffusionwas actually greater than the resistance of the basidiocarpsof Lycoperdon perlatum, L. polymorphum, and Scleroderma australe.The tissue resistance for water vapour movement from the fruitingbodies of other members of the Basidiomycetes was also low (below10 s cm1), while the resistance of 20 different sphericalfruits ranged from 30 to over 5000 s cm1. The thicknessof the air boundary layer for spheres can depend on the squareroot of a characteristic dimension divided by the wind velocity,as has already been shown for cylindrical and flat plant material. 相似文献

Evidence for Essential Maintenance Respiration of Leaves of Xanthium Strumarium at High Temperature 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Mesophyll resistance to photosynthetic carboxylation (r'm) wasused as a criterion for leaf integrity. It was measured, at25 °C, in the light, before and after periods of high temperature(3 h at 38 °C) in the dark. During the high temperatureperiods, respiration (RD) of attached leaves of Xanthium strumariumwas suppressed from 27%-36% by either low [O2] (1.04% or 0.21%v.v.) or high [CO2] (840 µl 11) in the ambientair. Neither treatment affected rates of RD or photo-respirationduring the second period at 25 °C. There was no significant increase of r'm when RD was not suppressedduring the high temperature treatment. When RD was suppressedat high temperatures, r'm increased from about 3s cm1before, to about 26 s cm1 after the high temperaturetreatment. The increase depended upon the degree of suppression. It is concluded that increased RD at high temperature in Xanthiumleaves is partly the result of an increase of energy demandingmaintenance. The subsequent rate of carbon dioxide fixationis reduced when this increase of maintenance-induced respirationis inhibited. 相似文献

Simultaneous measurement of export from leaves and import tofruits were made on tomato plants reduced to one fully expandedleaf and one fruit. Experimental leaves were exposed to sixlight flux densities (0.5100 W m2) for 24 h whilerapidly growing fruits were kept in the dark at 22 °C. The rates of export of assimilate from these leaves varied from70 to 120 mg C leaf1 day1 corresponding with ratesof carbon fixation from 3 to 290 mg C leaf1 day1.Export from leaves with the lowest carbon fixation rates weremaintained by a loss of up to one-sixth of their initial carbon.In contrast, leaves with the highest carbon fixation rates exportedonly half the newly fixed carbon. The rates of import of assimilate to similar-sized fruits (c.16 cm3) were between 80 and 110 mg C fr1 day1but differed from the export rates of the source leaves. Thespecific growth rates and the specific respiration rates ofthe fruits were related to their initial carbon content at thebeginning of the experiment. Thus, over 24 h, the rate of importwas predetermined by the developmental stage of the fruit unalteredby the rate of current carbon fixation in the source leaf. Translocationof assimilate was regulated by sink demand under both source-and sink-limiting conditions in this short-term situation. The dynamic relationship between assimilate production in leavesand its utilization in fruits is discussed together with therole of sucrose concentration in these organs in regulatingtransport.

Photosynthetic 14C fixation by Characean cells in solutionsof high pH containing NaH14CO3 gave a measure of the abilityof these cells to take up bicarbonate (H14CO3). Whereascells of Nitella translucens from plants collected and thenstored in the laboratory absorbed bicarbonate at 11.5µµmoles cm2 sec1, rates of 38µµmoles cm2 sec1 were obtained withN. translucens cells from plants grown in the laboratory. Influxesof 56 µµmoles cm2 sec1 wereobtained with Chara australis, 38 µµmolescm2 sec1 with Nitellopsis obtusa, and 15µµmoles cm2 sec1 with Tolypella intricata.It is considered that these influxes represent the activityof a bicarbonate pump, which may be an electrogenic process. In solutions of lower pH, H14CO3 uptake would be maskedby rapid diffusion of 14CO2 into the cells: the four Characeanspecies fixed 14CO2 at maximum rates of 3040 µµmolescm2 sec1 (at 21° C). 相似文献

The theory and practice of applying the thermodynamics of irreversibleprocesses to mass-flow theories is presented. Onsager coefficientswere measured on cut and uncut phloem and cut xylem strandsof Heracleum muntegazzimum. In 0.3 N sucrose + 1 mN KC1 theyare as follows. In phloem, LEE = 5 ? 104 mho cm1,LpE = 9 ? 106 cm3 s1 cm2 volt1 cm,and LPP = 0.16 cm3 s1 cm2 (J cm3)1cm. In uncut phloem strands LEE is about 1 ? 103 mhocm1. In xylem in 2 x 103 N KCI, Lpp = 50 to 225,LPE = 2 ? 104, and LEE = 4 ? 103. The measurementsare tentative since the blockage of the sieve plates is an interferingfactor, but if they are valid they lead to the conclusion thatneither a pressure-flow nor an electro-kinetic mechanism envisaginga long distance current pathway can be the majormotive force for transport in mature phloem. Measurementsof biopotentials along conducting but laterally detached phloembundles of Heracleum suggest, nevertheless, that there may bea small electro-osmotic component of at least 0.1 mV cm1endogenous in the phloem. 相似文献

The influence of salinity in the growing media on ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP) carboxylase and on CO2 fixation by intactsugar beet (Beta vulgaris) leaves was investigated. RuBP carboxylase activity was mostly stimulated in young leavesafter exposure of plants for 1 week to 180 mM NaCl in the nutrientsolution. This stimulation was more effective at the higherNaHCO2 concentrations in the reaction medium. Salinity also enhanced CO2 fixation in intact leaves mostlyat rate-limiting light intensities. A 60 per cent stimulationin CO2 fixation rate was obtained by salinity under 450 µEm2 s1. At quantum flux densities of 150 µEm2 s1 (400700 nm) this stimulation was280 per cent. Under high light intensities no stimulation bysalinity was found. In contrast, water stress achieved by directleaf desiccation or by polyethylene glycol inhibited enzymeactivity up to fourfold at 1.2 MPa.

Autotrophic picoplankton populations in Lake Kinneret are composedof picocyanobacteria and picoeukaryotes. Overall, the ratesof photosynthetic carbon fixed by autotrophic picoplankton duringthis study were low (0.011.5 mg Cm3 h1).The highest chlorophyll photosynthetic activity of the <3µm cell-size fraction was found in spring, when picoeukaryotespredominated and in addition small nanoplankton passed throughthe filters. The maximum cell-specific photosynthetic rate ofcarbon fixation by picocyanobacteria and picoeukaryotes was2.5 and 63 fg C cell1 h1, respectively. The highestspecific carbon fixation rate of autotrophic picoplankton was11 µg C µg1 Chl h1 The proportionalcontribution of autotrophic picoplankton to total photosynthesisusually increased with depth. Picocyanobacteria collected fromthe dark, anaerobic hypolimnion were viable and capable of activephotosynthesis when incubated at water depths within the euphoticzone. Maximum rates of photosynthesis (Pmax) for picocyanobacteriaranged from 5.4 to 31.4 fg C cell1 h1 with thehighest values in hypolimnetic samples exposed to irradiance.Photosynthetic efficiency ( 相似文献

An attempt has been made to separate constituents of marineseston samples: inorganic material, detritus and the algal species,by density gradient centrifugation, without affecting the physiologicalstate of the algae. A relatively inert gradient material, consistingof Percoll, salt and sucrose, was composed. Since the densitiesof detritus and algae as well as those of different algal speciesoften overlapped, only 10 of the 100 samples processed in thecourse of the year showed a reasonable separation. However,an enrichment with respect to one or more species was oftenachieved. Densities of eleven species of marine diatoms andof one dinoflagellate have been determined at different timesof the year. For eight diatom species and for the dinoflagellatethe following specific density ranges were established: Bidduiphiaaurita: 1.181.23 g cm3, Biddulphia sinensis: 1.031.08g cm3, Cerataulina bergonii: 1.031.06 g cm3,Ditylum brightwellii: 1.071.13 g cm3, Rhizosoleniadelicatula: 1.041.09 g cm3, Skeletonema costatum:1.121.17 g cm3, Streptotheca thamensis: 1.041.10g cm3 , Thalassiosira rotula: 1.051.10 g cm3,Peridinium sp.: 1.081.12 g cm3. No seasonal variationin density was demonstrated. Gradients of different compositiondid not influence density measurements. 相似文献

The chlorophyll content of a water column (WCC), which is commonlyused as an index of the phytoplankton abundance, is affectedby the choice of the sampling depths and by the variations ofthe vertical structure of density. For instance, the thicknessof the water layer, between two sigma-t values, which containsthe deep chlorophyll maximum, can vary with internal waves.The resulting noise often dominates the mesoscale variationsof the observed water-column chlorophyll (OWCC). Sigma-t dependentstatistics (mean, standard deviation) of the chlorophyll concentrationare computed using the observations at 29 casts from a 22-day-longfixed station in an oligotrophic environment at 15S, 173°E.For each cast, these statistics, the sampling depths, and thewater density at these sampling depths, allow the estimationof a station-dependent expected water-column chlorophyll(EWCC). The ratio of EWCC to the overall likelihood of WCC duringthe fixed station (i.e. the mean of all OWCC) is a measure ofthe effect of sampling and variable density structure at eachcast. When this effect is removed, the noise in WCC estimatesdecreases significantly. The time variations of WCC during thefixed station then show a trend with relatively high valuesduring the first days, followed by a 12-day-long period withlow values. A regular increase occurred from 1 October, whichwas accompanied by high carbon fixation rates and was mainlydue to an increase of the chlorophyll concentration betweenthe surface and the deep chlorophyll maximum. New productionduring this active phase was estimated to be 535 mgC m2day1, corresponding to 62% of the total production. Breakingof internal waves which were recorded at the beginning of thegrowth phase and vertical mixing of nutrients can explain theobservation. 相似文献

A study has been made of photosynthetic 14CO2 fixation by isolatedmature internodes of Nitella translucens. Experimentalconditions were similar to those used in studies of the ionicrelations of these cells. Maximum rates of photosynthesis were3340µµmoles CO2, fixed per cm2 of surfacearea per second (equivalent to 1215 /xmoles fixed permg chlorophyll per hour). l4CO2 fixation was inhibited to thedark level by 3(3,4,dichlorophenyl)-1, 1-dimethylurea (at 0-6µM or 10µM) and by the uncoupler carbonyl cyanide-m-chlorophenylhydrazone(SµM). The presence of imidazole or ammonium sulphate(both of which uncouple ATP production in vitro) did not resultin an inhibition of 14CO2 fixation. These results are discussedin relation to published work on solute uptake by Nitella translucens.During photosynthesis there was rapid movement of 14C-labelledorganic compounds out of the chloroplasts. 14C-labelled sucrose,ammo-acids, and sugar phosphates were found in samples of vacuolarsap. 相似文献

Studies on the Movement of Water Through Apple Trees 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
Resistances to the flow of water through young potted appletrees were estimated by measuring the transpiration rate oftrees with and without root systems. Root system resistanceswere obtained by difference. Whole-plant resistances were ofthe order 10 x 1013 Pa s m3 and there was some evidencethat root resistances (Rr) varied with transpiration rate; theratio Rr:Rx (where Rx is resistance to water flow in the stemsystem) altered from 2:1 at relatively high transpiration ratesto 1:1 at lower rates. The trunk of a 9-year-old orchard tree (trunk diameter {smalltilde}7 cm, height {small tilde}2.5 m) was cut under water andestimates of the flow resistances in this tree were obtained.These were much lower than the resistances to flow in the pottedtrees. Capacitance (defined as the change in stored water content perunit change in plant water potential) values were calculatedfor the small trees and the large tree from measurements ofweight and water potential changes after the trees were removedfrom water. They were very similar on a weight basis (approx.2.0 x 108 kg kg1 Pa1). Leaf capacitancevalues ({small tilde}1 x 108 kg Pa1 m2)were also obtained. Stomatal conductances decreased with water potential and increasedwith short-wave radiation, but the relationships were not definitive.Estimates of boundary layer conductance in a greenhouse (verylow wind speeds) were of the same order ({small tilde}5 mm s1)as values obtained previously. 相似文献

The thesis that the minimum cell-phosphorus content of planktonalgae is a light- and temperature-independent species constantwas investigated using the marine plankton diatom Thalassiosirarotula. To what extent the maximum cell-phosphorus content isalso a constant, light- and temperature-independent quantityhas been tested in parallel. At 2.5C and 3.03 nE cm2s1 the minimum and maximum cell-phosphorus contents aregreater than the values for 16C and 8.93 nE cm2 s1by a factor of 5.7. The light intensities were kept near thelight saturation for the growth rate for all experimental temperatures(2.5, 6, 12 and 16C). The light dependence of the phosphoruscontent was tested at 12C. For 1.43 nE cm2 s1the minimum phosphorus content was lower by a factor of 2.5than for 64.28 and 80.36 nE cm2 s1 respectively.The maximum P-content for 2.86 nE cm2 s1 was 3.9times higher than for 64.28 nE cm2 s1 T. rotulais, on the basis of the stored P-content, only capable of betweenthree and five cell divisions. The N/P atomic ratios were, dependingupon light and temperature, between 56:1 and 226:1 for the minimumcell-phosphorus content, which implies a pronounced phosphorusdeficiency. 相似文献

The values of P/U0 (Table I) and fluid velocity used to calculatethe energy required for sieving (pp. 12891290) and severalequations (footnote b of Table I; p. 1290, lines 34)are incorrect.

Using a similar argument, a 0.5 mm Ceriodaphnia witha filter area of 0.025 mm2 (Ganf and Shiel, 1985) and pressuredrop P = 2757 dyn cm2 (with fluid velocity of 0.07 cms1) allocates only 2171 ergs h1 to filtrationof a total energy expenditure of 104 ergs h1 [filtrationenergy (ergs h1) = area (cm2) x pressure drop (dyn cm2)x 3600 (s h1) x 1/0.2 (efficiency of conversion of biochemicalinto mechanical work); total energy (ergs h1) = respiration(0.05 µl O2 ind1 h1 consumed; Gophen, 1976)x conversion factor (2 x 105 ergs µl1 O2). Withan estimated 0.034 mm2 in filter area, fluid velocity of 0.041cm s1 and respiration of 1.8 x 104 ergs h1 (calculatedfrom Porter and McDonough, 1984), a 0.5 mm Bosmina uses <4%of its metabolism to overcome filter resistance. The velocities used in the original examples (0.4 cm s1for Ceriodaphnia, 0.2 cm s1 for Bosmina) were derivedfrom literature values of appendage beat rate and estimatesof the distance travelled by the appendages during each beatcycle. This approach unnecessarily assumes that all water movedpasses through the filter. In the new calculations, the flowacross the filter needed for food to be collected by sieving(0.07 cm s1 for Ceriodaphnia and 0.041 cm s1 forBosmina) was determined from the maximum clearance rate/filterarea. The amended energy expenditures, although higher, do notrefute the sieve model of particle collection. 相似文献

Effects of cytoplasmic Ca2+ on the electrical properties ofthe plasma membrane were investigated in tonoplast-free cellsof Chara australis that had been internally perfused with media,containing either 1 mM ATP to fuel the electrogenic pump orhexokinase and glucose to deplete the ATP and stop the pump. In the presence of ATP, cytoplasmic Ca2+ up to 2.5?105M did not affect the membrane potential (about -190 mV), butmembrane resistance decreased uniformly with increasing [Ca2+]i.In the absence of ATP, the membrane potential, which was onlyabout -110 mV, was depolarized further by raising [Ca2+]i from1.4?106 to 2.5?105 M. Membrane resistance, whichwas nearly the twofold that of ATP-provided cells, decreasedmarkedly with an increase in [Ca2+]i from zero to 1.38?106M, but showed no change for further increases. Internodal cellsof Nitellopsis obtusa were more sensitive to intracellular Ca2+with respect to membrane potential than were those of Charaaustralis, reconfirming the results obtained by Mimura and Tazawa(1983). The effect of cytoplasmic Ca2+ on the ATP-dependent H+ effluxwas measured. No marked difference in H+ effluxes was detectedbetween zero and 2.5?105 M [Ca2+]i; but, at 104M the ATP-dependent H+ efflux was almost zero. Ca2+ efflux experimentswere done to investigate dependencies on [Ca2+]i and [ATP]i.The efflux was about 1 pmol cm2 s1 at all [Ca2+]iconcentrations tested (1.38?106, 2.5?105, 104M).This value is much higher than the influx reported by Hayamaet al. (1979), and this efflux was independent of [ATP]i. Thepossibility of a Ca2+-extruding pump is discussed.

The distribution and abundance of photoautotrophic picoplankton(PPP. Synechococcus group) in the aphotic bottom sediments ofLake Biwa were investigated by direct counting and viable counting(most probable number, MPN) methods. In the surface layer ofbottom sediments (01 cm). where large PPP blooms occurredin the past 5 years, >105 cells cm3 of PPP were foundto be viable throughout the year. Furthermore, the density ofPPP deposited on the sediment surface (00.1 cm) was oneorder of magnitude higher (MPN = 1.3 x 106 cells cm3.direct count = 9.9 x 106 cells cm3) than that of bulkedsurface sediments (01 cm). Even in the deeper layer (1314cm) of bottom mud, viable PPP were still found (101 cells cm1.In winter, viable PPP in the aphotic bottom sediments were 104105times greater per Unit volume than those in the euphotic lakewater. Since the aphotic bottom sediments have high levels ofPPP, as well as high growth potential (high ratio of viablecount/total direct count), they are likely to seed PPP bloomsin the North Basin of Lake Biwa. 相似文献

In cells of cyanobacterium Anabaena variabilis grown under ordinaryair (low-CO2 cells), the transport of both CO2 and HCO3was significantly enhanced by Na+. This effect was pronouncedas the external pH increased. When low-CO2 cells were treatedwith an inhibitor of carbonic anhydrase (CA), only CO2 transportbut not HCO3 transport, was inhibited. The initial rateof photosynthetic carbon fixation as a function of the concentrationof internal inorganic carbon (IC) was practically the same irrespectiveof whether CO2 or HCO3 was externally supplied. Theseresults suggest that IC is actively transported through theplasma membrane in a form of HCO3 probably by some transporterand that the transmembrane Na+ gradient is involved in thisIC transport system. Free CO2 may be hydrated by CA to HCO3and then transported to the cells by this transporter. On the other hand, CO2 is actively taken up by cells grown withair containing 5% CO2 (high-CO2 cells) though the enhancingeffect of Na+ was much smaller in high- CO2 cells than in low-CO2cells. The initial rate of fixation as a function of internal IC concentrationindicated that the rate of the carboxylation reaction of accumulatedIC is higher in I0W-CO2 cells than in high-CO2 cells. The studieswith ethoxyzolamide indicated that even in low-CO2 cells, CAdoes not function inside Anabaena cells. These results suggestthat inside the low-CO2 cells of Anabaena, some mediator(s)facilitates the transport of IC to RuBPCase. (Received January 23, 1987; Accepted April 24, 1987) 相似文献

Apparatus is described for exposing plants to low concentrationsof SO2 (50500µg m3 in air) and for measuringeffects on photosynthesis, dark respiration, and transpiration.Temperature, humidity, and irradiance in the chambers were controlledindependently, and fans ensured that leaf boundary layer resistanceswere low. Experiments with plants of Vicia faba in clean andpolluted air showed that: (i) a depression of net photosynthesisby 50 µg m3 SO2 depended on boundary layer resistanceand on irradiance; (ii) stomatal resistance was increased ordecreased by 50 µg m3 SO2 when relative humidityin the chambers was low (35% r.h., 22 °C) or high (50% r.h.,22 °C) respectively. 相似文献

Pyrosoma atlanticum (Tunicata, Thaliacea): grazing impact on phytoplankton standing stock and role in organic carbon flux 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Pyrosomas are the large group of pelagic tunicates whose trophicrole in pelagic communities has not yet been sufficiently studied.We ran across a local area of high concentration of the mostwidespread and commonest species of pyrosomas, Pyrosoma atlanticum,450 miles off the Congo river mouth. The following was estimated:gut pigment content, defecation rate, organic carbon and pigmentcontent of fecal pellets, and sinking rate. Based on these dataand the measured number of pyrosomas colonies the grazing impacton phytoplankton and the fecal pellet flux were calculated.During the night swarms of 5065 mm P.atlanticum removed53% of phytoplankton standing stock in the 010 m layer;sparsely distributed pyrosomas consumed only 4%. The grazingimpact in the 050 m layer was only 12.5 and <1% respectively.The fecal pellet flux resulting from nocturnal feeding of P.atlanticumwhile swarming made up 1.41.6 x 106 pellets m210 h1 or 3051035 mg C m2 10 h1 and1.4 x 105 pellets m2 10 h1 or 87.4 mg C m210 h1 while non-swarming. Incubation experiments showedthe rapid degradation of fecal pellets at 23°C: the lossof pigment and carbon content was {small tilde}6070%after 45 h. We believe that given the sinking rate of 70 m day1the main part of fecal material does not leave the upper watercolumn and is retained in the trophic web of the epipelagiclayer. 相似文献

Experiments were conducted in a gas exchange system to examinethe effect of a water stress, induced by 200 kPa polyethyleneglycol (PEG), on carbon dioxide and water vapour flux, fronddiffusive resistance, intercellular carbon dioxide concentration,carbon dioxide residual resistance and frond water potentialin the ostrich fern (Matteuccia struthiopteris (L.) Todaro).Measurements were taken 1 d after the application of PEG. Themeasurements were made on young fronds (8 d old) and maturefronds (2024 d old) at PPFD's (Photosynthetic PhotonFlux Density) from 01400 µmol m22 s1.Water stress decreased the net photosynthesis rate in maturefronds at PPFD's of 210 µmol m2 s1 or greaterand increased the net photosynthesis rate below 210 µmolm2 s1 in young fronds. The increase in net photosynthesisin stressed young fronds was associated with a significant reductionin the dark respiration rate. Water stress and decreasing PPFD'sincreased frond diffusive resistance. Carbon dioxide concentrationin the intercellular spaces decreased with increasing frondage and PPFD's up to 200 µmol m2 s1. Theresidual resistance to carbon dioxide flux was not significantlyaffected by either frond age or water stress. Frond water potentialwas significantly lower in mature fronds than in young fronds.

Effect of Salinity on Growth, Nodulation and Nitrogen Yield of Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Chickpea cultivar ILC 482 was inoculated with salt-tolerantRhizobium strain Ch191 in solution culture with different saltconcentrations added either immediately with inoculation or5 d later. The inhibitory effect of salinity on nodulation ofchickpea occurred at 40 dS m1 (34.2 mol m3 NaCl)and nodulation was completely inhibited at 7 dS m1 (61.6mol m3 NaCl); the plants died at 8 dS m1 (71.8mol m3 NaCl). Chickpea cultivar ILC 482 inoculated with Rhizobium strain Ch191spcstrwas grown in two pot experiments and irrigated with saline water.Salinity (NaCl equivalent to 14 dS m1) significantlydecreased shoot and root dry weight, total nodule number perplant, nodule weight and average nodule weight. The resultsindicate that Rhizobium strain Ch191 forms an infective andeffective symbiosis with chickpea under saline and non-salineconditions; this legume was more salt-sensitive compared tothe rhizobia, the roots were more sensitive than the shoots,and N2 fixation was more sensitive to salinity than plant growth.
