Fixation of Carbon Dioxide by Barley Roots

Carbon Dioxide Fixation and Salt Uptake in Particulate Preparations from Barley Roots.

Previous workers (4, 6) have shown that CO2 fixation in excised roots is related to ion absorption since an absorption of excess cations results in an increase in both the CO2 fixation and in the formation of labelled malic acid. The accumulation of cations and anions has been demonstrated in both animal (1, 5, 8) and plant (7) mitochondria, and in view of Robertson's hypothesis that the mitoch...

Carbon Dioxide Fixation by Extracts of Streptococcus

sence of exogenously added glutamate and pyridoxal-5'-phosphate and produced radioactive aspartate in the presence of these components. Reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide or reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate could not be substituted for adenosine triphosphate (ATP); phosphoenolpyruvate even in the presence of nucleoside diphosphates could not replace pyruvate plus ATP; ...

Carbon Dioxide Fixation by Detached Cereal Caryopses1

Immature detached cereal caryopses from barley (Hordeum vulgare L. var distichum cv Midas) and wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv Sicco) were shown to be capable of fixing externally supplied"'CO2 in the light or dark. Green cross cells and the testa contained the majority of the 14Clabeled material. Some "4C-labeled material was also found in the outer, or transparent, layer and in the endosperm/e...

Carbon dioxide fixation by detached cereal caryopses.

Immature detached cereal caryopses from barley (Hordeum vulgare L. var distichum cv Midas) and wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv Sicco) were shown to be capable of fixing externally supplied (14)CO(2) in the light or dark. Green cross cells and the testa contained the majority of the (14)C-labeled material. Some (14)C-labeled material was also found in the outer, or transparent, layer and in the e...
