Salinity effects on leaf anatomy: consequences for photosynthesis.
Increasing salinity led to substantially higher ratios of mesophyll surface area to leaf area (A(mes)/A) for Phaseolus vulgaris and Gossypium hirsutum and a smaller increase for Atriplex patula, a salt-tolerant species. The increase in internal surface for CO(2) absorption did not lead to higher CO(2) uptake rates, since the CO(2) resistance expressed on the basis of mesophyll cell wall area (r...
متن کاملLeaf Anatomy of Orcuttieae (poaceae: Chloridoideae): More Evidence of C4 Photosynthesis without Kranz Anatomy
C4 photosynthesis without Kranz anatomy (single-cell C4 photosynthesis) occurs in only 0.003% of known species of C4 flowering plants. To add insight into the evolution of C4 photosynthesis, we studied the tribe Orcuttieae (Poaceae: Chloridoideae), which has species that can grow under both aquatic and terrestrial conditions, and utilize single-cell C4 photosynthesis when growing submerged. Car...
متن کاملGlobal variability in leaf respiration in relation to climate, plant functional types and leaf traits.
Leaf dark respiration (Rdark ) is an important yet poorly quantified component of the global carbon cycle. Given this, we analyzed a new global database of Rdark and associated leaf traits. Data for 899 species were compiled from 100 sites (from the Arctic to the tropics). Several woody and nonwoody plant functional types (PFTs) were represented. Mixed-effects models were used to disentangle so...
متن کاملPhotosynthesis in relation to leaf characteristics of cotton from controlled and field environments.
In situ and light-saturated net photosynthetic rates per unit leaf area were greater in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) plants grown in pots in the field than in similar plants from a phytotron growth chamber. Light-saturated stomatal resistances did not differ in leaves of similar age and exposure on field and chamber plants; lower photosynthetic rates in chamber leaves were associated with gre...
متن کاملMembrane potentials of vallisneria leaf cells and their relation to photosynthesis.
A study has been made of the effects of the inhibitors carbonylcyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP), 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethyl urea (DCMU), and of anoxia on the light-sensitive membrane potential of Vallisneria leaf cells. The present results are compared with the known effects of these inhibitors on ion transport and photosynthesis (Prins 1974 Ph.D thesis). The membrane potential i...
