چکیده

The assimilation of CO(2) by etiolated Hordeum vulgare seedlings during an illumination period indicates a conversion of the organisms to autotrophy.After 1 hour illumination, increases in the photo-assimilation of CO(2) are observed and the distribution of C(14) in the soluble fraction of the plants is predominantly in intermediates of the Calvin cycle.

Endogenous rhythmicity of ethylene production in growing intact cereal seedlings.

Ethylene evolution from etiolated barley (Hordeum vulgare), wheat (Triticum aestivum), and rye (Secale cereale) seedlings during coleoptile growth followed a rhythmic pattern, with a period of about 16 h for barley and wheat and 12 h for rye seedlings. Leaf emergence disturbed the established rhythm of ethylene evolution.

Growth, photosynthesis, nitrogen partitioning and responses to CO2 enrichment in a barley mutant lacking NADH-dependent nitrate reductase activity.

Plant growth, photosynthesis and leaf constituents were examined in the wild-type (WT) and mutant nar1 of barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv. Steptoe) that contains a defective structural gene encoding NADH-dependent nitrate reductase (NADH-NAR). In controlled environment experiments, total biomass, rates of photosynthesis, stomatal conductance, intercellular CO(2) concentrations and foliar non-stru...

Coordinate Expression of Rubisco Activase and Rubisco during Barley Leaf Cell Development.

We have utilized the cellular differentiation gradient and photomorphogenic responses of the first leaf of 7-day-old barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) to examine the accumulation of mRNA and protein encoded by the ribulose-1,5-biphosphate carboxylase holoenzyme (rubisco) activase gene (rca). Previous studies have revealed a pattern of coordinate expression of rubisco subunit polypeptides during devel...

Catabolism of 5-Aminolevulinic Acid to CO(2) by Etiolated Barley Leaves.

The in vivo oxidation of the C(4) and C(5) of 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) to CO(2) has been studied in etiolated barley (Hordeum vulgare L. var. Larker) leaves in darkness. The rate of (14)CO(2) evolution from leaves fed [4-(14)C]ALA is strongly inhibited by aminooxyacetate, anaerobiosis, and malonate. The rate of (14)CO(2) evolution from leaves fed [5-(14)C]ALA is also inhibited by these treat...

Characterization of protoheme levels in etiolated and greening plant tissues.

The protoheme content of etiolated, greening, and fully greened bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L. var. Light Red Kidney) leaves has been studied. The protoheme level in etiolated and fully greened leaf tissue stays relatively constant from age 7 to 14 days. In agreement with the studies reported for barley (Castelfranco and Jones 1975 Plant Physiol 55: 485-490), the protoheme content of greening bean...
