Abstract:A comparative study was made of the inhibition of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphatecarboxylase-oxygenase (Rubisco) amongst six cultivars of Glycinemax L. Merr., associated with synthesis of 2-carboxyarabinitol1-phosphate (CA1P) during darkness. Significantly lower meanvalues of dark inhibition of Rubisco were observed in soybeancv. Davis than in cvs Bragg, Cobb, Hardee, Gordon, and Kirby.The CA1P synthesis/degradation cycle during dark/light transitionsremained operational in cv. Bragg plants grown at low irradiance(40 µmol photons m–2 s–1). However, CA1P synthesisand degradation rates were slower in the dark (t0.5 = 240 versus25 min), and light (t0.5 = 20 versus 3.8 min) respectively,as compared to plants grown at higher irradiance (550 µmolphotons m–2 s–1). In addition, the activation stateof Rubisco in low-light-grown plants showed only a small declineafter a transition to darkness. We conclude that (a) cultivar-dependentvariation occurs amongst soybeans with respect to CAlP regulationof Rubisco, and (b) soybeans acclimated to low irradiance maydepend more on CA1P synthesis/degradation to regulate Rubisco,and less on changes in the enzyme activation state.
