Photosynthetic rate control in cotton : photorespiration.
The purpose of this research was to determine the magnitude of photorespiration in field-grown cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) as a function of environmental and plant-related factors. Photorespiration rates were estimated as the difference between measured gross and net photosynthetic rates.A linear increase in photorespiration was observed as air temperature increased from 22 to 40 degrees C a...
متن کاملVariables Affecting the CO(2) Compensation Point.
Some factors influencing dark respiration, photorespiration, and photosynthesis were examined for their effect on the CO(2) compensation point (70 mul/l) of detached soybean (Glycine max) leaf discs. A higher compensation point in young leaves decreased to the constant value after leaf expansion and maturation, but increased again during senescence. The compensation point was 40 to 50% higher i...
متن کاملRelationship between Photosynthesis and Respiration: The Effect of Carbohydrate Status on the Rate of CO(2) Production by Respiration in Darkened and Illuminated Wheat Leaves.
The rate of dark CO(2) efflux from mature wheat (Triticum aestivum cv Gabo) leaves at the end of the night is less than that found after a period of photosynthesis. After photosynthesis, the dark CO(2) efflux shows complex dependence on time and temperature. For about 30 minutes after darkening, CO(2) efflux includes a large component which can be abolished by transferring illuminated leaves to...
متن کاملSeasonal Changes in the Photosynthetic Rate in Apple Trees : A Comparison between Fruiting and Nonfruiting Trees.
Seasonal changes in photosynthesis of apple trees (Malus domestica Borkh.) were monitored to examine the effect of source-sink interactions on photosynthesis and photorespiration. Elevated photosynthetic rates were observed during two periods of the growing season and correlated with the fruiting process. The first period of increased photosynthetic rates was during the bloom period, when spur ...
متن کاملEffect of oxygen on photosynthesis, photorespiration and respiration in detached leaves. I. Soybean.
The effect of O(2) on the CO(2) exchange of detached soybean leaves was measured with a Clark oxygen electrode and infrared carbon dioxide analysers in both open and closed systems.The rate of apparent photosynthesis was inhibited by O(2) while the steady rate of respiration after a few minutes in the dark was not affected. Part of the inhibition of apparent photosynthesis was shown to be a res...
