Grafting Helps Improve Photosynthesis and Carbohydrate Metabolism in Leaves of Muskmelon
The most important quality for muskmelon (Cucumis melo L.) is their sweetness which is closely related to the soluble sugars content. Leaves are the main photosynthetic organs in plants and thus the source of sugar accumulation in fruits since sugars are translocated from leaves to fruits. The effects of grafting muskmelon on two different inter-specific (Cucurbita maxima×C. moschata) rootstock...
متن کاملCarbohydrate metabolism of the avocado. I. Relations between sugars in leaves during photosynthesis and subsequent dark periods.
The sugars of avocado leaves and leaf disks were labeled by photosynthesis in CO2 during various periods. The label found in the sugars was examined immediately following photosynthesis as well as after a period of respiration under various conditions. Sucrose was found to be the sugar most rapidly labeled during photosynthesis. Mannoheptulose was formed concurrently with sucrose but at a lower...
متن کاملgrafting and silicon improve photosynthesis and nitrate absorption in melon (cucumis melo l.) plants
grafting of cucurbitaceae species to some rootstocks seems to be especially beneficial for the nitrogen nutrition of these plants. moreover, melons (cucumis melo l.) have been considered among those plants that could benefit from the addition of silicon (si) in the nutrient solution (ns). thus, two experiments were carried out in the following order: (i) it was investigated how grafting affects...
متن کاملThe effect of maternal hypothyroidism during pregnancy on carbohydrate metabolism in adulthood in rats
Introduction: Many of the diseases of adulthood are originated from the intrauterine conditions during fetal life. Because of the importance of thyroid hormones in growth and development of the fetus, the effects of maternal hypothyroidism on carbohydrate metabolism in adulthood was investigated. Methods: Pregnant rats were divided into the fetal hypothyroidism (FH) and the control (C) group...
متن کاملSynthesis of vinyl phosphate, a possible intermediate in carbohydrate metabolism and photosynthesis.
It is now well established that phosphate esters are essential intermediates in a wide range of biochemical conversions. Unsuspected instability of some of these esters has, on previous occasions, delayed their positive identification in biological materials. For example, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate and dihydroxyacetone phosphate, which had long been suspected to be intermediates in fermentation...
