Greenhouse-grown plants of Xanthium strumarium L. were exposed in a growth cabinet to 10 C during days and 5 C during nights for periods of up to 120 hours. Subsequently, CO 2 exchange, transpiration, and leaf temperature were measured on attached leaves and in leaf sections at 25 or 30 C, 19 C dew point of the air, 61 milliwatts per square centimeter irradiance, and CO 2 concentrations between 0 and 1000 microliters per liter ambient air. Net photosynthesis and stomatal conductance decreased and dark respiration increased with increasing duration of prechilling. The reduction in net photosynthesis was not a consequence of decreased stomatal conductance because the intercellular CO 2 concentration in prechilled leaves was equal to or greater than that in greenhouse-grown controls. The intercellular CO 2 concentration at which one-half maximum net photosynthesis occurred remained the same in prechilled leaves and controls (175 to 190 microliters per liter). Stomata of the control plants responded to changes in the CO 2 concentration of the air only slightly. Prechilling for 24 hours or more sensitized stomata to CO 2; they responded to changes in CO 2 concentration in the range from 100 to 1000 microliters per liter. 相似文献

The submerged aquatic plant Isoetes howellii Engelmann possesses Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) comparable to that known from terrestrial CAM plants. Infrared gas analysis of submerged leaves showed Isoetes was capable of net CO 2 uptake in both light and dark. CO 2 uptake rates were a function of CO 2 levels in the medium. At 2,500 microliters CO 2 per liter (gas phase, equivalent to 1.79 milligrams per liter aqueous phase), Isoetes leaves showed continuous uptake in both the light and dark. At this CO 2 level, photosynthetic rates were light saturated at about 10% full sunlight and were about 3-fold greater than dark CO 2 uptake rates. In the dark, CO 2 uptake rates were also a function of length of time in the night period. Measurements of dark CO 2 uptake showed that, at both 2,500 and 500 microliters CO 2 per liter, rates declined during the night period. At the higher CO 2 level, dark CO 2 uptake rates at 0600 h were 75% less than at 1800 h. At 500 microliters CO 2 per liter, net CO 2 uptake in the dark at 1800 h was replaced by net CO 2 evolution in the dark at 0600 h. At both CO 2 levels, the overnight decline in net CO 2 uptake was marked by periodic bursts of accelerated CO 2 uptake. CO 2 uptake in the light was similar at 1% and 21% O 2, and this held for leaves intact as well as leaves split longitudinally. Estimating the contribution of light versus dark CO 2 uptake to the total carbon gain is complicated by the diurnal flux in CO 2 availability under field conditions. 相似文献

For the leaf succulent Agave deserti and the stem succulent Ferocactus acanthodes, increasing the ambient CO 2 level from 350 microliters per liter to 650 microliters per liter immediately increased daytime net CO 2 uptake about 30% while leaving nighttime net CO 2 uptake of these Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) plants approximately unchanged. A similar enhancement of about 30% was found in dry weight gain over 1 year when the plants were grown at 650 microliters CO 2 per liter compared with 350 microliters per liter. Based on these results plus those at 500 microliters per liter, net CO 2 uptake over 24-hour periods and dry weight productivity of these two CAM succulents is predicted to increase an average of about 1% for each 10 microliters per liter rise in ambient CO 2 level up to 650 microliters per liter. 相似文献

Wheat ( Triticum aestivum L. cv Albis) was grown in open-top chambers in the field and fumigated daily with charcoal-filtered air (0.015 microliters per liter O 3), nonfiltered air (0.03 microliters per liter O 3), and air enriched with either 0.07 or 0.10 microliters per liter ozone (seasonal 8 hour/day [9 am-5 pm] mean ozone concentration from June 1 until July 10, 1987). Photosynthetic 14CO 2 uptake was measured in situ. Net photosynthesis, dark respiration, and CO 2 compensation concentration at 2 and 21% O 2 were measured in the laboratory. Leaf segments were freeze-clamped in situ for the determination of the steady state levels of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate, 3-phosphoglycerate, triose-phosphate, ATP, ADP, AMP, and activity of ribulose, 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase. Photosynthesis of flag leaves was highest in filtered air and decreased in response to increasing mean ozone concentration. CO 2 compensation concentration and the ratio of dark respiration to net photosynthesis increased with ozone concentration. The decrease in photosynthesis was associated with a decrease in chlorophyll, soluble protein, ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase activity, ribulose bisphosphate, and adenylates. No decrease was found for triose-phosphate and 3-phosphoglycerate. The ratio of ATP to ADP and of triosephosphate to 3-phosphoglycerate were increased suggesting that photosynthesis was limited by pentose phosphate reductive cycle activity. No limitation occurred due to decreased access of CO 2 to photosynthetic cells since the decrease in stomatal conductance with increasing ozone concentration did not account for the decrease in photosynthesis. Ozonestressed leaves showed an increased degree of activation of ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase and a decreased ratio of ribulose bisphosphate to initial activity of ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase. Nevertheless, it is suggested that photosynthesis in ozone stressed leaves is limited by ribulose bisphosphate carboxylation possibly due to an effect of ozone on the catalysis by ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase. 相似文献

Numerous photosynthesis and growth measurements of sour orange ( Citrus aurantium L.) trees maintained in ambient air and air enriched with an extra 300 microliters per liter of CO 2 have revealed the CO 2-enriched trees to have consistently sequestered approximately 2.8 times more carbon than the control trees over a period of three full years. Under field conditions in the natural environment, plants may not experience the downward regulation of photosynthetic capacity typically observed in long-term CO 2 enrichment experiments with plants growing in pots. 相似文献

Growth at an elevated CO 2 concentration resulted in an enhanced capacity for soybean ( Glycine max L. Merr. cv Bragg) leaflet photosynthesis. Plants were grown from seed in outdoor controlled-environment chambers under natural solar irradiance. Photosynthetic rates, measured during the seed filling stage, were up to 150% greater with leaflets grown at 660 compared to 330 microliters of CO 2 per liter when measured across a range of intercellular CO 2 concentrations and irradiance. Soybean plants grown at elevated CO 2 concentrations had heavier pod weights per plant, 44% heavier with 660 compared to 330 microliters of CO 2 per liter grown plants, and also greater specific leaf weights. Ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (rubisco) activity showed no response (mean activity of 96 micromoles of CO 2 per square meter per second expressed on a leaflet area basis) to short-term (~1 hour) exposures to a range of CO 2 concentrations (110-880 microliters per liter), nor was a response of activity (mean activity of 1.01 micromoles of CO 2 per minute per milligram of protein) to growth CO 2 concentration (160-990 microliters per liter) observed. The amount of rubisco protein was constant, as growth CO 2 concentration was varied, and averaged 55% of the total leaflet soluble protein. Although CO 2 is required for activation of rubisco, results indicated that within the range of CO 2 concentrations used (110-990 microliters per liter), rubisco activity in soybean leaflets, in the light, was not regulated by CO 2. 相似文献

The course of respiration of attached maize ( Zea mays L.) leaves was measured by infrared gas analysis of CO 2 efflux in the dark following illumination in atmospheres of 300 microliters of CO 2 per liter of air, CO 2-free air, and CO 2-free N 2 containing 400 microliters of O 2 per liter. CO 2 efflux from control leaves started 3 to 4 minutes after darkening, increased to a maximum after about 20 minutes, and returned to a steady minimum after 2 to 3 hours. Respiration was quantitatively related to prior illumination, independent of net CO 2 fixation in the light, and depressed by N 2. Light, but not air, was required to produce a substrate for respiration in the subsequent dark period; air was required for oxidation of the substrate to CO 2. The stimulation of respiration by prior illumination in maize leaves differs in its slower onset and greater duration from the postillumination burst of photorespiration. 相似文献

The effect of sink strength on photosynthetic rates under conditions of long-term exposure to high CO 2 has been investigated in soybean. Soybean plants (Merr. cv. Fiskeby V) were grown in growth chambers containing 350 microliters CO 2 per liter air until pod set. At that time, plants were trimmed to three trifoliolate leaves and either 21 pods (high sink treatment) or 6 pods (low sink treatment). Trimmed plants were either left in 350 microliters CO 2 per liter of air or placed in 1000 microliters CO 2 per liter of air (high CO 2 treatment) until pod maturity. Whole plant net photosynthetic rates of all plants were measured twice weekly, both at 350 microliters CO 2 per liter of air and 1000 microliters CO 2 per liter of air. Plants were also harvested at this time for dry weight measurements. Photosynthetic rates of high sink plants at both measurement CO 2 concentrations were consistently higher than those of low sink plants, and those of plants given the 350 microliter CO 2 per liter of air treatment were higher at both measurement CO 2 concentrations than those of plants given the 1000 microliters CO 2 per liter of air treatment. When plants were measured under treatment CO 2 levels, however, rates were higher in 1,000 microliter plants than 350 microliter CO 2 plants. Dry weights of all plant parts were higher in the 1,000 microliters CO 2 per liter air treatment than in the 350 microliters CO 2 per liter air treatment, and were higher in the low sink than in the high sink treatments. 相似文献

The relationship between net photosynthesis and CO 2 concentration was investigated for four species of lichen using an infrared gas analyzer operating in a closed loop system. All species showed a linear relationship at low CO 2 levels (100 microliters per liter) with CO 2 saturation levels being in excess of 400 microliters per liter. Detailed studies of Sticta latifrons showed a strong influence of thallus water content which resulted in the net photosynthetic response at high water contents still being nearly linear at 1000 microliters per liter CO 2. Very low CO 2 compensation values (5 microliters per liter) were obtained under some conditions but the value varied between thalli and with thallus water content. The results differ from previous studies which reported low CO 2 saturation levels (200 microliters per liter) and no apparent effect of water content. It is suggested that some of these differences may result from the use of a discrete sampling injection infrared gas analyzer system in the earlier studies and an assessment is made of the influence of nonsaturating CO 2 levels, lack of cuvette ventilation, and data presentation for this technique. 相似文献

Stomatal closing movements in response to changes from CO 2-free to CO 2-containing air were recorded in leaf sections of Zea mays using air flow porometers. The response to CO 2 was fast; the shortest lag between the application of 300 microliters CO 2 per liter of air and the beginning of a stomatal response was 3 seconds. The velocity of stomatal closing increased with CO 2 concentration and approached its maximal value between 10 3 and 10 4 microliters CO 2 per liter of air. The CO 2 concentration at which the closing velocity reached half its maximal value was approximately 200 microliters CO 2 per liter of air, both in the light and in darkness. This indicates that the mechanism of stomatal responses to CO 2 is the same in both light regimes and that the range of stomatal sensitivity to changes in CO 2 concentration coincides with the range of CO 2 concentrations known to occur in the intercellular spaces of illuminated leaves. 相似文献

Photoautotrophic calli of Nicotiana plumbaginifolia were grown for 3 weeks under two CO 2 concentrations (500 and 20,000 microliters of CO 2 per liter). Calli cultured at high CO 2 exhibited a two-fold higher rate of growth. At CO 2 test levels, these calli were characterized by a lower net photosynthetic capacity than calli cultured at low CO 2. This diminution due to CO 2 adaptation could be ascribed to a 170% stimulation of dark respiration, a 40% decrease in total ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase (Rubisco) activity, and also to a feedback inhibition of photosynthesis: high CO 2 grown calli contained about 5.5-fold more sucrose and three-fold less orthophosphate (Pi) than low CO 2 grown calli. Whether the decrease in Rubisco activity is related to the accumulation of sucrose and to the Pi limitation is discussed. Both calli exhibited a Warburg-effect showing the existence of active photorespiration at low CO 2. In calli grown at low CO 2 with 5 millimolar aminoacetonitrile (AAN), an inhibitor of the glycolate pathway, fresh weight decreased by 25% and chlorophyll content by 40%, dark respiration increased by 50% and net CO 2 uptake decreased by about 60% at 340 microliters of CO 2 per liter and 35% at 10,000 microliters of CO 2 per liter. In these calli, glutamine and glutamate contents were half of control calli. In contrast, AAN did not provoke any noticeable effect in calli grown at high CO 2. In photoautotrophic calli, the inhibition of the glycolate pathway by AAN results in severe perturbations in glutamate metabolism and in chlorophyll biosynthesis. 相似文献

Photosynthetic CO 2 and O 2 exchange was studied in two moss species, Hypnum cupressiforme Hedw. and Dicranum scoparium Hedw. Most experiments were made during steady state of photosynthesis, using 18O 2 to trace O 2 uptake. In standard experimental conditions (photoperiod 12 h, 135 micromoles photons per square meter per second, 18°C, 330 microliters per liter CO 2, 21% O 2) the net photosynthetic rate was around 40 micromoles CO 2 per gram dry weight per hour in H. cupressiforme and 50 micromoles CO 2 per gram dry weight per hour in D. scoparium. The CO 2 compensation point lay between 45 and 55 microliters per liter CO 2 and the enhancement of net photosynthesis by 3% O 2versus 21% O 2 was 40 to 45%. The ratio of O 2 uptake to net photosynthesis was 0.8 to 0.9 irrespective of the light intensity. The response of net photosynthesis to CO 2 showed a high apparent Km (CO 2) even in nonsaturating light. On the other hand, O 2 uptake in standard conditions was not far from saturation. It could be enhanced by only 25% by increasing the O 2 concentration (saturating level as low as 30% O 2), and by 65% by decreasing the CO 2 concentration to the compensation point. Although O 2 is a competitive inhibitor of CO 2 uptake it could not replace CO 2 completely as an electron acceptor, and electron flow, expressed as gross O 2 production, was inhibited by both high O 2 and low CO 2 levels. At high CO 2, O 2 uptake was 70% lower than the maximum at the CO 2 compensation point. The remaining activity (30%) can be attributed to dark respiration and the Mehler reaction. 相似文献

The CO 2 compensation point of the submersed aquatic macrophyte Hydrilla verticillata varied from high (above 50 microliters per liter) to low (10 to 25 microliters per liter) values, depending on the growth conditions. Plants from the lake in winter or after incubation in an 11 C/9-hour photoperiod had high values, whereas summer plants or those incubated in a 27 C/14-hour photoperiod had low values. The plants with low CO 2 compensation points exhibited dark 14CO 2 fixation rates that were up to 30% of the light fixation rates. This fixation reduced respiratory CO 2 loss, but did not result in a net uptake of CO 2 at night. The low compensation point plants also showed diurnal fluctuations in titratable acid, such as occur in Crassulacean acid metabolism plants. However, dark fixation and diurnal acid fluctuations were negligible in Hydrilla plants with high CO 2 compensation points. 相似文献

Using iron stress to reduce the total amount of light-harvesting and electron transport components per unit leaf area, the influence of light-harvesting and electron transport capacity on photosynthesis in sugar beet ( Beta vulgaris L. cv F58-554H1) leaves was explored by monitoring net CO 2 exchange rate ( P) in relation to changes in the content of Chl. In most light/CO2 environments, and especially those with high light (≥1000 microeinsteins photosynthetically active radiation per square meter per second) and high CO2 (≥300 microliters CO2 per liter air), P per area was positively correlated with changes in Chl (a + b) content (used here as an index of the total amount of light-harvesting and electron transport components). This positive correlation of P per area with Chl per area was obtained not only with Fe-deficient plants, but also over the normal range of variation in Chl contents found in healthy, Fe-sufficient plants. For example, light-saturated P per area at an ambient CO2 concentration close to normal atmospheric levels (300 microliters CO2 per liter air) increased by 36% with increase in Chl over the normal range, i.e. from 40 to 65 micrograms Chl per square centimeter. Iron deficiency-mediated changes in Chl content did not affect dark respiration rate or the CO2 compensation point. The results suggest that P per area of sugar beet may be colimited by light-harvesting and electron transport capacity (per leaf area) even when CO2 is limiting photosynthesis as occurs under field conditions. 相似文献

Preincubation of illuminated tobacco ( Nicotiana tabacum L.) leaf disks in glycidate (2,3-epoxypropionate) or glyoxylate inhibited photorespiration by about 40% as determined by the ratio of 14CO 2 evolved into CO 2-free air in light and in darkness. However, under identical preincubation conditions used for the light/dark 14C assays, the compounds failed to reduce photorespiration or stimulate net photosynthesis in tobacco leaf disks based on other CO 2 exchange parameters, including the CO 2 compensation concentration in 21% O 2, the inhibitory effect of 21% O 2 on net photosynthesis in 360 microliters per liter of CO 2 and the rate of net photosynthetic 14CO 2 uptake in air. The effects of both glycidate and glyoxylate on the 14C assay are inconsistent with other measures of photorespiratory CO2 exchange in tobacco leaf disks, and thus these data question the validity of the light to dark ratio of 14CO2 efflux as an assay for relative rates of photorespiration (Zelitch 1968, Plant Physiol 43: 1829-1837). The results of this study specifically indicate that neither glycidate nor glyoxylate reduces photorespiration or stimulates net photosynthesis by tobacco leaf disks under physiological conditions of pO2 and pCO2, contrary to previous reports. 相似文献

A simple, inexpensive apparatus for making mixtures of accurately known amounts of CO 2 and CO 2-free atmospheric air is described. Calibration gases with CO 2 contents of 200 to 1500 microliters per liter produced with the apparatus had concentrations which were within 10 microliters per liter of the target concentration. 相似文献

Carbon exchange capacity of cucumber ( Cucumis sativus L.) germinated and grown in controlled environment chambers at 1000 microliters per liter CO 2 decreased from the vegetative growth stage to the fruiting stage, during which time capacity of plants grown at 350 microliters per liter increased. Carbon exchange rates (CERs) measured under growth conditions during the fruiting period were, in fact, lower in plants grown at 1000 microliters per liter CO 2 than those grown at 350. Progressive decreases in CERs in 1000 microliters per liter plants were associated with decreasing stomatal conductances and activities of ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase and carbonic anhydrase. Leaf starch concentrations were higher in 1000 microliters per liter CO 2 grown-plants than in 350 microliters per liter grown plants but calcium and nitrogen concentrations were lower, the greatest difference occurring at flowering. Sucrose synthase and sucrose-P-synthase activities were similar in 1000 microliters per liter compared to 350 microliters per liter plants during vegetative growth and flowering but higher in 350 microliters per liter plants at fruiting. The decreased carbon exchange rates observed in this cultivar at 1000 microliters per liter CO 2 could explain the lack of any yield increase (MM Peet 1986 Plant Physiol 80: 59-62) when compared with plants grown at 350 microliters per liter. 相似文献

The mass transfer rate of 14C-sucrose translocation from sugar beet ( Beta vulgaris, L.) leaves was measured over a range of net photosynthesis rates from 0 to 60 milligrams of CO 2 decimeters −2 hour −1 under varying conditions of light intensity, CO 2 concentration, and O 2 concentration. The resulting rate of translocation of labeled photosynthate into total sink tissue was a linear function (slope = 0.18) of the net photosynthesis rate of the source leaf regardless of light intensity (2000, 3700, or 7200 foot-candles), O 2 concentration (21% or 1% O 2), or CO 2 concentration (900 microliters/liter of CO 2 to compensation concentration). These data support the theory that the mass transfer rate of translocation under conditions of sufficient sink demand is limited by the net photosynthesis rate or more specifically by sucrose synthesis and this limitation is independent of light intensity per se. The rate of translocation was not saturated even at net photosynthesis rates four times greater than the rate occurring at 300 microliters/liter of CO 2, 21% O 2, and saturating light intensity. 相似文献

Experiments are described further indicating that O 2-resistant photosynthesis observed in a tobacco ( Nicotiana tabacum) mutant with enhanced catalase activity is associated with decreased photorespiration under conditions of high photorespiration relative to net photosynthesis. The effects on net photosynthesis of (a) increasing O 2 concentrations from 1% to 42% at low CO 2 (250 microliters CO 2 per liter), and (b) of increasing O 2 concentrations from 21% to 42% at high CO 2 (500 microliters CO 2 per liter) were investigated in M 6 progeny of mutant and wild-type leaf discs. The mutant displayed a progressive increase in net photosynthesis relative to wild type with increasing O 2 and the faster rate at 42% O 2 was completely reversed on returning to 21% O 2. The photosynthetic rate by the mutant was similar to wild type in 21% and 42% O 2 at 500 microliters CO 2 per liter, and a faster rate by the mutant was restored on returning to 250 microliters CO 2 per liter. The results are consistent with a lowered release of photorespiratory CO 2 by the mutant because greater catalase activity inhibits the chemical decarboxylation of α-keto acids by peroxisomal H 2O 2. Higher catalase activity was observed in the tip and middle regions of expanding leaves than in the basal area. On successive selfing of mutant plants with enhanced catalase activity, the percent of plants with this phenotype increased from 60% in M 4 progeny to 85% in M 6 progeny. An increase was also observed in the percent of plants with especially high catalase activity (averaging 1.54 times wild type) on successive selfings suggesting that homozygosity for enhanced catalase activity was being approached. 相似文献
