Mesophyll conductance to CO2 in Arabidopsis thaliana.
The close rosette growth form, short petioles and small leaves of Arabidopsis thaliana make measurements with commercial gas exchange cuvettes difficult. This difficulty can be overcome by growing A. thaliana plants in 'ice-cream cone-like' soil pots. This design permitted simultaneous gas exchange and chlorophyll fluorescence measurements from which the first estimates of mesophyll conductance...
متن کاملKnock-out models reveal new aquaporin functions.
Knockout mice have been informative in the discovery of unexpected biological functions of aquaporins. Knockout mice have confirmed the predicted roles of aquaporins in transepithelial fluid transport, as in the urinary concentrating mechanism and glandular fluid secretion. A less obvious, though predictable role of aquaporins is in tissue swelling under stress, as in the brain in stroke, tumor...
متن کاملThe impacts of TRR14 over-expression on Arabidopsis thaliana growth and some photosynthetic parameters
Background: TRR14 protein is a small member of a multi-gene family in Arabidopsis and is the first ones found during screening of seedlings for their resistant to the trehalose sugar.Objectives: Characterization ofTRR14 over-expressed plants with respect to morphological changes, growth and photosynthesis related parameters.Materials and methods: TRR14gene was isolated from Arabidop...
متن کاملKnock-out mutants from an En-1 mutagenized Arabidopsis thaliana population generate phenylpropanoid biosynthesis phenotypes.
A collection of 8,000 Arabidopsis thaliana plants carrying 48,000 insertions of the maize transposable element En-1 has been generated. This population was used for reverse genetic analyses to identify insertions in individual gene loci. By using a PCR-based screening protocol, insertions were found in 55 genes. En-1 showed no preference for transcribed or untranscribed regions nor for a partic...
متن کاملTobacco aquaporin NtAQP1 is involved in mesophyll conductance to CO2 in vivo.
Leaf mesophyll conductance to CO(2) (g(m)) has been recognized to be finite and variable, rapidly adapting to environmental conditions. The physiological basis for fast changes in g(m) is poorly understood, but current reports suggest the involvement of protein-facilitated CO(2) diffusion across cell membranes. A good candidate for this could be the Nicotiana tabacum L. aquaporin NtAQP1, which ...
