Summary Photosynthesis and respiratory carbon losses of freshly collected Antarctic phytoplankton were measured in incubators at 5 temperatures between-2° C and +8°C. The results were used to predict daily growth rates and to define temperature and daylength boundary conditions under which the net balance between photosynthesis and respiration would be positive and allow increases in standing stock. Whereas the Q10 of photosynthesis was 1.4–2.2, the Q10 of respiratory losses exhibited a wide range and higher maxima (2.3–12). Model calculations sugest that under ample light energy supply during long summer days, potential daily growth rates are not severely affected by the low temperatures prevailing in the Southern Ocean. If energy supply is restricted by short days and deep water column mixing, substantially reduced respiration rates at low temperatures may allow the algae to survive.  相似文献

The seasonal variation of phytoplankton photosynthesis was measured with 14C-method in a warmed ice-free pond in central Finland. Simultaneously with in situ measurements the photosynthesis was also measured in an incubator with different water temperatures and constant light (ca. 16 W m–2). The total annual photosynthesis was 57.2 C m–2 a–1. The portion of the winter and spring production of the annual photosynthesis was 18.4%, that of the autumn production ws 17.4%. Thus 64.3% of the total annual phytoplankton photosynthesis occurred in the three summer months. The range of the daily integrated photosynthesis per unit area was 1.9—563 mg C m–2d–1. The photosynthetic rate per unit chlorophyll a varied in situ from 0.94 to 33.1 mg C (mg chl. a)–1 d–1. The highest value was measured in the beginning of July and the lowest in mid-January. The photosynthetic rate increased in situ exponentially with increasing water temperature. In the incubator the highest photosynthetic rate values were also found in July and August (at+20 °C) when the phytoplankton population was increasing and the minimum values occurred after every diatom maximum both in spring and autumn. Light was a limiting factor for photosynthesis from September to Mid-January, low water temperature was a limiting factor from late January through May. The efficiency of the photosynthesis varied between 0.1 and 0.7% of P.A.R. According to the incubator experiments the Q10 values for the photosynthesis were 2.45 and 2.44 for the winter population between 1 and 10° C and for the summer population between 5 and 15° C, respectively, but the Q10 values decrease at the higher temperatures. The main effect of the warm effluents on the yearly photosynthesis was the increase of production in spring months due to the lack of ice cover. However, the increase of total annual phytoplankton photosynthesis was only ca. 10–15%, because the water temperature was during the spring months below 10° C.  相似文献

Summary Carbon dioxide exchange rates were recorded for different ages and positions of foliage and parts of the main stem of a 7-m tall Pinus radiata D. Don tree growing in a large, artificially lit, controlled-environment room. Irradiance levels were varied from dark to approximately full sunlight, and air temperatures from 10° to 35°C in 5°C steps. Leaf temperatures within the cuvettes used for CO2 exchange measurements, however, were up to 5°C higher than the room air temperature set but this varied with position in the tree crown, the shaded lower crown being at approximately room temperature. A balance sheet was prepared to show the photosynthetic gains and respiratory losses of different parts of the crown over 24 h at each air temperature and at irradiances of 400, 270, and 135 W m-2 during the 8-h photosynthetic period. The greatest daily photosynthetic gain was at 10° C, although this temperature is considered sub-optimal for growth. At temperatures greater than 25° C, even at the greatest irradiance level for 8 h, total respiration was greater than photosynthesis.  相似文献

Summary Chlorophyll distribution within the carpets, CO2 gas exchange under controlled conditions, and heat resistance of the snowbed bryophyte Anthelia juratzkana (Limpr.) Trev. were investigated. Also the gas-exchange parameters of the co-occurring Polytrichum sexangulare Floercke were assessed. Only the uppermost 4 mm layer of Anthelia carpets contains sufficient pigments for photosynthesis. At light saturation and optimal temperatures (6–11°C) the maximum rates of CO2 uptake are 0.7 mg CO2 g-1dw h-1 in Anthelia and 1.5 mg CO2 g-1dw h-1 in Polytrichum. Gas exchange reaches light saturation at about 300 E m-2s-1 in both species. At +2°C the light compensation point is reached at ca. 10E m-2s-1 and increases significantly with increasing temperature. The lower temperature compensation point is reached at-4°C in Anthelia and does not drop much below-5°C in Polytrichum. Anthelia cannot sustain net photosynthesis beyond 30°C and Polytrichum not beyond 32°C. Nine month storage under dark, cold and wet conditions does not affect the photosynthetic capability of Anthelia. As a response, however, the net photosynthesis rate is depressed due to an increase of the respiration rates. Polytrichum sexangulare did not tolerate the storage so well. The heat resistance limit of Anthelia is low (39°C). There is evidence that the distribution of the two bryophytes within snowbed communities is determined by their capability to make use of low light intensities and their low temperature demand for optimal photosynthetic rates. Being resistant to long lasting cold, wet, and dark conditions, Anthelia is particularly adapted to grow in the border zone along permanent snowpatches. Polytrichum is more productive and is therefore capable of competing successfully at sites which are less extreme and therefore accessible for higher plants.  相似文献

Cultures of the obligate psychrophilic diatom Fragilariopsis cylindrus (Grunow) were grown for 4 months under steady-state conditions at −1 °C and +7 °C (50 μmol photons m−2 s−1) prior to measurements in order to investigate long-term acclimation of photosynthesis to both temperatures. No differences in maximum intrinsic quantum yield of PS II (FV/FM) and relative electron transport rates could be detected at either temperature after 4 months of acclimation. Measurements of photosynthesis (relative electron transport rates) vs. irradiance (P vs. E curves) revealed similar values for relative light utilization efficiency (α = 0.57 at −1 °C, α = 0.60 at +7 °C) but higher values for irradiance levels at which photosynthesis saturates (EK) at −1 °C and, therefore, higher maximum photosynthesis (PMAX = 54 (relative units) at −1 °C, PMAX = 49 at +7 °C). Nonphotochemical quenching (NPQ) measurements at 385 μmol photons m−2 s−1 indicated higher (37%) NPQ for diatoms grown at −1 °C compared to +7 °C, which was possibly related to a 2-fold increase in the concentration of the pigment diatoxanthin and a 9-fold up-regulation of a gene encoding a fucoxanthin chlorophyll a,c-binding protein. Expression of the D1 protein encoding gene psbA was ca. 1.5-fold up-regulated at −1 °C, whereas expression levels of other genes from Photosystem II (psbC, psbU, psbO), as well as rbcL, the gene encoding the Rubisco large subunit were similar at both temperatures. However, a 2-fold up-regulation of a plastid glyceraldehyde-P dehydrogenase at −1 °C indicated enhanced Calvin cycle activity. This study revealed for the first time that a polar diatom could efficiently acclimate photosynthesis over a wide range of polar temperatures given enough time. Acclimation of photosynthesis at −1 °C was probably regulated similarly to high light acclimation.  相似文献

We investigated the ability of eelgrass (Zostera marina) to adjust light requirements to seasonal changes in temperature, light and nutrient conditions through changes in metabolism, pigment and nutrient content. In agreement with expectations we found that rates of respiration and light saturated photosynthesis of summer acclimated plants peaked at higher temperatures (5 °C and 2 °C higher, respectively), and were lower than of winter acclimated plants, both at sub- and supra-optimal temperatures. Moreover respiration rates were generally more sensitive to increasing temperatures than photosynthetic rates, especially so for cold acclimated plants in February (36% higher Q10-values). These changes were accompanied by a reduction in chlorophyll a and nitrogen concentrations in leaves by 35% and 60% respectively from February to August. The critical light requirement (EC) of Z. marina to maintain a positive carbon balance increased exponentially with increasing temperature but less so for summer-acclimated than for winter-acclimated plants. However, combining EC vs temperature models for whole-plants with data on daily light availability showed that seasonal acclimation in metabolism increased the annual period, when light requirements were meet at the 2-5 m depth interval, by 32-66 days. Hence, acclimation is an important mechanism allowing eelgrass to grow faster and penetrate to deeper waters. Critical depth limits estimated for different combinations of summer temperatures and water clarity in a future climate scenario, suggested that expected increases in temperature and nutrient run-off have synergistic negative effects, especially in clear waters, stressing the importance of continued efforts to improve water clarity of coastal waters.  相似文献

We investigated the acclimation of Chondrus crispus to growth at 5°C and 20°C in the laboratory. We were specifically interested in the responses of light-limited photosynthesis to temperature and the effects of short-term thermal changes (of the order of minutes). Thermal acclimation to constant temperatures over 3–4 weeks had significant effects on the light-use characteristics of this species such that in comparison with those grown at 5°C, 20°C-grown plants had higher concentrations of chlorophyll a and total phycobilins, which were associated with larger photosynthetic unit sizes. Plants grown at the higher temperature had greater photosynthetic efficiencies (α) and higher rates of light-limited photosynthesis at a given photon flux density than did plants acclimated to 5°C. Plants acclimated to 20°C were less sensitive to short-term temperature changes than were 5°C-acclimated plants. These results are discussed in terms of (1) the effects of growth temperature on light harvesting and (2) the implications of exposure to constant temperature for short-term thermal responses.  相似文献

Summary The response of net photosynthesis (NP) and dark respiration to periods of high insolation exposure was examined in the tropical basidiomycete lichen Cora pavonia. Photoinhibition of NP proved quite dependant on temperature. Rates of light saturated NP were severely impaired immediately after pretreatment high light exposure at temperatures of 10, 20 and 40°C, while similar exposure at 30°C resulted in only minimal photoinhibition. Apparent quantum yield proved an even more sensitive indicator of photoinhibition, reduced in all temperature treatments, although inhibition was again greatest at low and high temperatures. Concurrent exposure to reduced O2 tensions during high light exposure mitigated some of the deleterious effects of high light exposure at 10 and 20°C, suggesting an interaction of O2 with the inactivation of photosynthetic function. This represents the first reported instance of light dependant chilling stress in lichens, and may be an important limitation on the distribution of this and other tropical lichen species. This narrow range of temperatures within which thalli of C. pavonia can withstand periods of high insolation exposure coincides with that faced by hydrated thalli during rare periods of high insolation exposure within the cloud/shroud zone on La Soufrière, and points to the necessity of considering periods of atypical or unusual climatic events when interpreting patterns of net photosynthetic response, both in tropical and in north temperate lichen species.  相似文献

Summary CO2 exchange, 14CO2 fixation and 14C-products of Anacystis nidulans (strain L 1402-1) were studied during the induction period at temperatures of +15°C and+35°C. At+15°C the stationary rates of CO2 uptake and respiration were reached directly. At+35°C a maximum of CO2 uptake could be observed at the beginning of the illumination period followed by a lower steady rate of photosynthesis. In the following dark period a CO2 gush appeared at+35°C. The magnitude of the CO2 outburst is relatively independent of the photosyntbetic period. The autoradiographic studies showed that the Calvin cycle is the main carboxylation pathway in Anucystis. At a temperature of +35°C serine was labelled after 20 sec of photosynthesis. At+15°C, on the other hand, a low radio-activity appeared in serine after 5 min of photosynthesis. The results show that photorespiration of Anacystis is stimulated by high temperatures.  相似文献

Spinach plants (Spinacia oleracea L.) were frost-hardened by cold-acclimation to 1° C or kept in an unhardy state at 20°/14° C in phytotrons. Detached leaves were exposed to temperatures below 0°C. Rates of photosynthetic CO2 uptake by the leaves, recorded after frost treatment, served as a measure of freezing injury. Thylakoid membranes were isolated from frost-injured leaves and their photosynthetic activities tested. Ice formation occurred at about-4° to-5° C, both in unhardened and cold-acclimated leaves. After thawing, unhardened leaves appeared severely damaged when they had been exposed to-5° to-8° C. Acclimated leaves were damaged by freezing at temperatures between-10° to-14° C. The pattern of freezing damage was complex and appeared to be identical in hardened and unhardened leaves: 1. Inactivation of photosynthesis and respiration of the leaves occurred almost simultaneously. 2. When the leaves were partly damaged, the rates of photosynthetic electron transport and noncyclic photophosphorylation and the extent of light-induced H+ uptake by the isolated thylakoids were lowered at about the same degree. The dark decay of the proton gradient was, however, not stimulated, indicating that the permeability of the membrane to-ward protons and metal cations had not increased. 3. As shown by partial reactions of the electron transport system, freezing of leaves predominantly inhibited the oxygen evolution, but photosystem II and photosystem I-dependent electron transport were also impaired. 4. Damage of the chloroplast envelope was indicated by a decline in the percentage of intact chloroplasts found in preparations from injured leaves. The results are discussed in relation to earlier studies on freezing damage of thylakoid membranes occurring in vitro.Abbreviations Chl chlorophyll - DCPIP 2,6-dichlorophenol indophenol - HEPES N-2-hydroxyethylpiperazine-N-2-ethane sulfonic acid - MES 2(N-morpholino) ethane sulfonic acid  相似文献

Summary Evolution of CO2 into CO2-free air was measured in the light and in the dark over a range of temperatures from 15 to 50°. Photosynthetic rates were measured in air and O2-free air over the same range of temperatures. Respiration in the light had a different sensitivity to temperature compared with respiration in the dark. At the lower temperatures the rate of respiration in the light was higher than respiration in the dark, whereas at temperatures above 40° the reverse was observed. For any one species the maximum rates of photosynthesis and photorespiration occur at about the same temperature. The maximum rate for dark respiration generally is found at a temperature about 10° higher. Zea mays and Atriplex nummularia showed no enhancement of photosynthesis in O2-free air nor any evolution of CO2 in CO2-free air at any of the temperatures.  相似文献

Summary Net photosynthesis of Picea abies was measured in a spruce forest in northern Germany with temperature- and humidity-controlled cuvettes in 4 different crown layers on shoots of different ages. These measurments were performed such that temperature and humidity either followed ambient conditions or were kept constant. Annual courses of light-, temperature-, and humidity-related net photosynthesis were determined. Spruce had a remarkably constant rate of CO2 uptake from April to September for 1-year and older needles. Light saturation was achieved at 25 klx. Current year needles had the highest rates of CO2 uptake in early summer, but these rates decreased by autumn. Photosynthetic capacity decreased with needle age and, on a dry weight basis, it was higher in the shade than in the sun crown. The temperature optimum was between 13 and 23° C. Photosynthesis in spruce decreased when air humidity was low.The effect of the natural weather conditions on photosynthetic capacity was determined. The habitat is characterized by a high frequency of low light intensities (75% of total daytime below 20 klx) and cool temperatures (80% of daytime between 9 and 21° C). Low air humidity was only present when light intensities were high. The major limiting factor for production was low light intensities, which reduced photosynthetic capacity in the sun crown to 42% below maximum possible rates. Adverse temperatures reduced CO2 uptake by 28% and large water vapor pressure deficits reduced rates by only 2% compared with maximum possible rates. The limited adaptation to light is discussed.  相似文献

The photosynthetic behaviour ofDunaliella viridis has been studied under a combination of three variables: irradiance (0–900 mol m–2 s–1), temperature (15, 23, 31, 38, 42 °C) and nitrogen concentration (0.05, 0.5, 1.5, 5, 10 mM NO 3 - ) at a salinity of 2 M NaCl.The highest rates of photosynthesis have been found at 31 °C and a nitrate concentration of 10 mM. There exists a synergistic effect between temperature and nitrogen availability on the photosynthesis ofD. viridis; under nitrogen deficiency oxygen evolution is low, even null at high temperature. The interaction between these two variables of control occurs in a multiplicative way. There is also a general increase in photosynthetic pigments following the increase in nitrogen concentration in the culture medium. The normalization of net photosynthesis data in relation to chlorophylla shows that nitrogen concentration makes an indirect control of the photosynthetic rate ofD. viridis through the variation of pigment concentration.  相似文献

Summary The formations of transients in CO2 exchange in the blue-green alga Anacystic nidulans is dependent on the temperature used during the measurements. The algae were grown in a low light intensity (4000 lux) under normal air conditions and measured in the same low CO2 concentration (0.03 vol. %) but under a higher light intensity (10 000 lux). At a temperature of +20°C the stationary rate of CO2 uptake was reached directly. At a temperature of +35°C, on the other hand, a maximum of CO2 uptake could be observed at the beginning of the light period followed by a steady rate of photosynthesis, which was higher than at +20°C. In the beginning of the dark period a CO2 outburst appeared at 35°C.Only at a low temperature (+20°C) did we find a light induced glycollate excretion; after a maximum at 7 1/2 minutes illumination the release of glycollate ceases and the level decreases to a lower value. A similar time course exists during illumination in red light (621 nm, 1.5·10-8 einsteins) and a temperature of +20°C. In blue light (432 nm, 1,5·10-8 einsteins, +20°C) and in white light at a high temperature (+35°C) we could not find any light induced glycollate excretion. Our results are discussed in reference to the photorespiration. We explain the formation of transients in CO2 uptake of Anacystis at a high temperature (+35°C) and in blue light (+20°C) on the basis of the influence of photorespiration.  相似文献

Ecological studies of Chloroflexis,a gliding photosynthetic bacterium   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Summary Chloroflexis, a gliding, filamentous, photosynthetic bacterium, is present in the stratified algal-bacterial mats which occur in the 50°–70°C temperature range of alkaline hot spring effluents. The organism is in association with the alga in the upper, algal layer, and also forms thick, orange mats beneath the algal layer. Natural populations of Chloroflexis from these mats demonstrated light-stimulated uptake of some 14C-labelled organic compounds. Photosynthetic 14CO2 fixation by natural samples of Chloroflexis was investigated with respect to temperature, light intensity and mat depth. Bacterial photosynthesis was determined in samples in which algae were present by use of the inhibitor 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea (DCMU). Bacterial photosynthesis was maximal at depths down to about 3 mm and then decreased rapidly to very low levels at greater depths. The greatest amounts of bacteriochlorophyll pigments were also concentrated in the top 3–4 mm of the mat. The optimum light intensity for bacterial photosynthesis (about 400 ft-c) was considerably lower than the normal summer light intensity at the surface of the mat (5000-8000 ft-c).The temperature optima for photosynthesis by the bacterial component of natural mat samples from several sites of different temperatures in a hot spring thermal gradient were determined. Temperature optima approximated the environmental temperatures, indicative of the occurrence of strains of Chloroflexis adapted to different temperatures. Although bacterial standing crop was greatest in the temperature range 50°–55°C, maximum photosynthetic efficiency was observed at about 45°C. Sulfide was stimulatory to photosynthetic 14CO2 fixation by naturally occurring populations of Chloroflexis under field conditions. These data are consistent with the hypothesis that Chloroflexis may utilize sulfide as an electron donor for photosynthetic CO2 reduction. However, it is also likely that Chloroflexis grows photoheterotrophically in these mats, obtaining organic compounds from algal excretory products.  相似文献

Summary The survival potential of lichens in a given habitat is determined by the response of CO2 exchange to photosynthetically active radiation (PhAR), thallus temperature, and thallus relative water content (RWC). Therefore morphologically similar lichens from contrasting climatic environments 1) should differ in their CO2 exchange responses, and 2) these differences should reflect adaptations to their climatic regimes. The CO2 exchange responses of a subarctic (55°N, 67°W) Cladina stellaris (Opiz) Brodo population and a temperate (29°N, 82°W) Cladina evansii (Abb.) Hale and W. Culb, population were used to test these two related hypotheses.Infrared gas analysis with lichens collected in September–October 1975 established that the two populations differed in their responses to incident PhAR, thallus temperature, and thallus RWC. Net photosynthesis in C. stellaris had an optimum at a lower temperature and a greater relative photosynthetic capacity at low temperatures than did C. evansii. Cladina evansii maintained net photosynthesis above 35°C thallus temperature; C. stellaris did not. In both species the optimum temperature for net photosynthesis increased with increasing irradiance. The C. stellaris light saturation point was consistently lower than that of C. evansii. Both species had maximal rates of net photosynthesis at 70–80% relative water content. In C. evansii the CO2 exchange rates, expressed as percentages of the maximum rate, declined more rapidly under suboptimal conditions. The absolute CO2 exchange rates of C. evansii were greater than those of C. stellaris. At 20°C and 90–95% RWC, resaturation respiration occurred in both species and continued until 6–7 h after wetting.Contrasts in the temporal patterns of thallus condition at each collection site suggest that not all differences in the two response surfaces reflect climatic adaptation. The two populations appear well adapted to incident PhAR and thallus temperature regimes but the 70–80% RWC optimum for net photosynthesis common to both species is puzzling since their water regimes differ markedly. The overall adaptedness of the CO2 exchange responses in the two species cannot be judged without a comprehensive quantitative analysis of carbon balance under differing climatic regimes.  相似文献

Summary Potted Pinus montana seedlings, age 4 years, transplanted on adjacent east and north facing slopes 25 m apart at alpine timberline (2,020 m a.s.l.) were measured for net photosynthesis and transpiration under ambient conditions using climatised Koch-Siemens cuvettes. Concurrent recordings were made of air temperature, atmospheric water vapour pressure deficit and illuminance at each site.On a typical summers day the northern aspect averaged 9% less light, 1.8°C cooler air temperatures and 25% lower v.p.d. levels than the eastern aspect. The order of these differences was found to increase in the autumn. Net photosynthetic rates of seedlings on the northern aspect were on average 28% lower than the rates of seedlings on the warmer eastern aspect. Differences in transpiration rates were even greater with north slope seedlings averaging rates 42% lower than east slope seedlings.Maximum CO2 uptake rate per hour of east slope seedlings was 3.2 mg CO2 g-1 d.w.h-1 but average rates when light was not limiting were around 2.0 mg CO2 g-1 d.w.h-1. Corresponding values for the north slope seedlings were 3.0 mg CO2 and 1.8 mg CO2 g-1 d.w.h.-1 respectively.Light intensities below 10 klx, when photosynthesis was strongly limited by light, totalled 48% of available daylight hours on the east slope and more than 50% on the north slope.Net photosynthesis was largely unaffected by air temperature between 10°C and the recorded maximum at either site (24°C east, 20°C north) and there was no apparent response to v.p.d. at levels up to 10 mbar. However the consistently higher net photosynthesis of east slope seedlings under all combinations of weather conditions indicated a possible acclimatisation of seedlings at each site.  相似文献

The effect of growth temperature on photosynthetic metabolism was studied in the kelp Laminaria saccharina (L.) Lamour. Photosynthesis was subject to phenotypic adaptation, with almost constant photosynthetic rates being achieved at growth temperatures between 0 and 20° C. This response involved: (1) an inverse relationship between growth temperature and photosynthetic capacity, (2) a reduction in the Q10 value for photosynthesis of L. saccharina grown at 0 and 5° C compared with 10, 15 and 20° C grown sporophytes, and (3) an acquired tolerance of photosynthesis to temperatures between 15–25° C (which inhibited photosynthesis in 0 and 5° C grown L. saccharina) in sporophytes grown at 10, 15 and 20° C. The physiological basis of these adaptations is discussed in terms of observed changes in activities and kinetics of the Calvin cycle enzyme ribulose-1, 5-bisphosphate carboxylase (oxygenase) and efficiency of light harvesting-electron transport systems.  相似文献

Light curves of CO2 fixation by barley seedling leaves preliminarily heated at 30–43°C for 5 min were measured. The slope of the linear part of the light curve decreased after leaf heating at temperatures above 35°C; whereas, at a high light level, the photosynthesis rate decreased only at temperatures of 40°C and higher. The linear relationships between the photosynthetic CO2-fixation rate and a photon flux density up to 1400 mol/(m2 s) were found in leaves preheated at 42°C; this indicates the strong nonphotochemical dissipation of absorbed light quanta. The lowering of the oxygen concentration from 21 to 1% led to a CO2 fixation maximum quantum yield and a photosynthesis-rate increase at the highest light intensity in leaves preheated at temperatures above 40°C as compared to the control leaves. Nevertheless, the linear relationship between the photosynthetic CO2 fixation and the light intensity was found in leaves heated at 42°C at O2 concentrations of both 21 and 1%. The latter fact suggests that the proton gradient of the thylakoid membrane, which causes an increase in the nonphotochemical dissipation of the quanta absorbed, could also be formed due to the cyclic electron transport over photosystem I.  相似文献

Photosynthetic rates of both C4- and C3-pathway plants grown at 25 C were measured before and during a period of chilling stress at 10 C, and then again at 25 C following various periods at 10 C. When temperatures are first lowered photosynthetic rates drop immediately, then undergo a further reduction which is quite rapid in species such as Sorghum, maize, and Pennisetum; slower in soybean; and very slow in Paspalum and ryegrass. Visible light causes progressive permanent damage to the photosynthetic capacity of leaves during this period of lowered photosynthesis. The extent of damage increases with light intensity and the length of time leaves are held at 10 C but varies greatly between species, being roughly correlated with the extent to which chilling initially and subsequently lowers photosynthesis. Three days of chilling (10 C) at 170 w·m−2 reduces the photosynthetic capacity of youngest-mature Paspalum leaves only 30 to 40% while Sorghum leaves are essentially inoperative when returned to 25 C after the same stress. Root temperature has a substantial rapid effect on photosynthesis of soybean and little immediate effect on Sorghum. Photosynthesis of stress-intolerant species (Sorghum) is reduced only slightly more than that of semitolerant species (Paspalum) when temperatures are lowered at mid-photo-period, but to a far greater extent if temperatures are reduced at the commencement of a photoperiod.  相似文献
