| Abstract: | Some of the published evidence used in the synthesis and maintenancemodel of plant respiration is discussed in relation to the effectof temperature. Recalculations from the data of de Vries (1975b) give different results from those claimed by him. The modelis considered in terms of the use of substrate in the dark andits production in the light. It is suggested that starvationestimates of maintenance are not valid. The most reliable methodof observing synthesis respiration in whole plants appears tobe by following a discrete pool of substrate, as is possiblewith labelled carbon.
