چکیده

When mannose is provided in the transpiration stream to spinach (Spinacia oleracea) leaf discs, a series of specific and nonspecific changes occur in CO(2) and H(2)O vapor exchange as a function of feeding time. The initial increases in apparent photosynthesis and transpiration are nonspecific effects due to osmotic changes leading to passive stomatal opening. The mannose-specific effects are: (a) time-dependent changes in the CO(2) concentration required for saturation; (b) complex kinetics of the inhibition of CO(2) assimilation dependent on CO(2) and O(2) concentrations and the duration of feeding (high CO(2) and low O(2) lead to rapid inhibitions of photosynthesis); (c) elimination of the capacity of 2% O(2) to stimulate photosynthesis; and (d) oscillations in the CO(2) exchange rate following transitions from 20% to 2% O(2). The mannose-specific effects are reversible by orthophosphate. The mannose-dependent changes in gas exchange are attributed to altered [ATP]/[ADP] ratios.

The impact of prolonged flood-irrigation on leaf gas exchange in mature pecans in an orchard setting

Woody perennials subjected to root oxygen-stress often respond with varying levels of reduced assimilation and leaf gas exchange. Yet in most of these studies, seedlings grown in pots were subjected to experimental conditions that rarely exist in nature for mature trees. To determine if flooding mature orchard-grown pecan (Carya illinoiensis (Wangh) K. Koch) results in a similar depressed photo...

The effects of different timings and severity of drought stress on gas exchange parameters of mungbean

Mungbean (Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek) or green gram as a dryland grain legume is exposed to varied timings and severity of drought stress, resulting in variability in photoassimilate production. In order to evaluate some physiological responses in one mungbean cultivar to timing and severity of drought stress, a 3-replicate RCBD (randomized complete block design) field experiment was carried ou...

Effect of Light and Chilling Temperatures on Chilling-sensitive and Chilling-resistant Plants. Pretreatment of Cucumber and Spinach Thylakoids in Vivo and in Vitro.

The effects of chilling temperatures, in light or dark, on the isolated thylakoids and leaf discs of cucumber (Cucumis sativa L. "Marketer") and spinach (Spinacia oleracea L. "Bloomsdale") were studied. The pretreatment of isolated thylakoids and leaf discs at 4 C in the dark did not affect the phenazine methosulfate-dependent phosphorylation, proton uptake, osmotic response to sucrose, Ca(2+)-...

Diurnal Variations of Gas Exchange Characteristics in Leaves of Anise Hyssop (Agastache foeniculum) under Normal, Drought Stress and Recovery Conditions

 Net photosynthesis rate (Pn), stomatal conductance (gs) and transpiration rate (E) of anise hyssop were measured during the four cloudless days, in reference to diurnal fluctuations of leaf temperature (Tleaf), leaf vapor pressure deficit (VPD leaf) and photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD) in well watered (WW), stressed (S) and recovered (R) plants. An analysis of measured data showed tha...
