An evaluation of the recycling in measurements of photorespiration.
All measurements of photorespiration and gross photosynthesis in leaves, whether using isotopes or not, are underestimated because of the recycling of O(2) or CO(2). On the basis of a simple diffusion model, we propose a method for the calculation of the recycling and the corresponding underestimation of the measurements. This procedure can be applied when the stomatal resistance is known, and ...
متن کاملBiochemical dissection of photorespiration.
Progress has been made in the understanding of photorespiration and related proteins (Rubisco, glycolate oxidase and glycine decarboxylase) in the context of recent structural information. Numerous shuttles exist to support transamination, ammonia refixation and the supply or export of reductants generated or consumed (via malate-oxaloacetate shuttles) in the photorespiratory pathway. A porin-l...
متن کاملMeasurement of photorespiration in algae.
The rates of true and apparent photosynthesis of two unicellular green algae, one diatom and four blue-green algae were measured in buffer at pH 8.0 at subsaturating concentrations of dissolved inorganic carbon (13-27 micromolar). Initial rates of depletion from the medium of inorganic carbon and (14)C activity caused by the algae in a closed system were measured by gas chromatography and by li...
متن کاملVariation in photorespiration. The effect of genetic differences in photorespiration on net photosynthesis in tobacco.
The hypothesis that net photosynthesis is diminished in many plant species because of a high rate of CO(2) evolution in the light has been tested further. High rates of CO(2) output in CO(2)-free air in comparison with dark respiration were found in Chlamydomonas reinhardi, wheat leaves, tomato leaves, and to a lesser extent in Chlorella pyrenoidosa by means of the (14)C-photorespiration assay....
متن کاملRecent developments in photorespiration research.
Photorespiration is the light-dependent release of CO(2) initiated by Rubisco (ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase) during oxygenic photosynthesis. It occurs during the biochemical reactions of the photorespiratory C(2) cycle, which is an ancillary metabolic process that allows photosynthesis to occur in oxygen-containing environments. Recent research has identified the genes for ma...
