Photorespiration connects C3 and C4 photosynthesis.
C4 plants evolved independently more than 60 times from C3 ancestors. C4 photosynthesis is a complex trait and its evolution from the ancestral C3 photosynthetic pathway involved the modification of the leaf anatomy and the leaf physiology accompanied by changes in the expression of thousands of genes. Under high temperature, high light, and the current CO2 concentration in the atmosphere, the ...
متن کاملThe C02-Concentrating Mechanism and Photorespiration
Despite previous reports of no apparent photorespiration in C. , plants based on measurements of gas exchange under 2 versus 21% O, at varying [CO,], photosynthesis in maize (Zea mays) shows a dual response to varying [O,]. l h e maximum rate of photosynthesis in maize i s dependent on 0, (approximately 10Y0). lhis O2 dependence is not related to stomatal conductance, because measurements were...
متن کاملThe role of photorespiration during the evolution of C4 photosynthesis in the genus Flaveria
C4 photosynthesis represents a most remarkable case of convergent evolution of a complex trait, which includes the reprogramming of the expression patterns of thousands of genes. Anatomical, physiological, and phylogenetic and analyses as well as computational modeling indicate that the establishment of a photorespiratory carbon pump (termed C2 photosynthesis) is a prerequisite for the evolutio...
متن کاملRegulation of CO2 Concentrating Mechanism in Cyanobacteria
In this chapter, we mainly focus on the acclimation of cyanobacteria to the changing ambient CO2 and discuss mechanisms of inorganic carbon (Ci) uptake, photorespiration, and the regulation among the metabolic fluxes involved in photoautotrophic, photomixotrophic and heterotrophic growth. The structural components for several of the transport and uptake mechanisms are described and the progress...
متن کاملPhotosynthesis and photorespiration in algae.
The CO(2) exchange of several species of fresh water and marine algae was measured in the laboratory to determine whether photorespiration occurs in these organisms. The algae were positioned as thin layers on filter paper and the CO(2) exchange determined in an open gas exchange system. In either 21 or 1% O(2) there was little difference between (14)CO(2) and (12)CO(2) uptake. Apparent photosy...
