Effect of High Night Temperatures on Cotton Respiration, ATP Content, and Carbohydrates

چکیده
The unpredictability of cotton yields is a great concern to the cotton industry. High temperatures are considered to be one of the main environmental factors contributing to variable yields in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.). This has been attributed to a negative effect on respiration and carbohydrate accumulation, but the evidence for this is lacking. In this study it was hypothesized that high night temperatures have a negative effect on cotton respiration and energy (adenosine -triphosphate, ATP) levels that results in a significant loss of carbohydrates.

Effect of High Night Temperatures During the Vegetative Stage of Cotton
Global temperature is expected to increase by 1.4 to 5.8 oC by the end of the 21st century due to increases in greenhouse gases concentrations (IPCC, 2007). High temperatures are considered to be a major environmental stress contributing to yield loss; however, night temperatures are anticipated to increase faster than day temperatures due to increased cloudiness that will result in decreased r...

The objectives of this study were to evaluate effects of ambient and double ambient [ CO2 ] at a range of growing temperatures on photosynthesis, respiration, transpiration, water-use efficiency and dry matter accumulation of cotton plants (Gossypium hirsutum L., cv. DPL 50). In Experiment I, plants were grown outdoors untiJ first bloom, then transferred into naturally lit growth chambers and g...
