Elevated CO2 improved the growth of a double nitrate reductase defective mutant of Arabidopsis thaliana: the importance of maintaining a high energy status
Impairments in leaf nitrogen (N) assimilation in C3 plants have been identified as processes conditioning photosynthesis under elevated [CO2], especially when N is supplied as nitrate. Leaf N status is usually improved ... -
Genetic and isotope ratio mass spectrometric evidence for the occurrence of starch degradation and cycling in illuminated Arabidopsis leaves
Although there is a great wealth of data supporting the occurrence of simultaneous synthesis and breakdown of storage carbohydrate in many organisms, previous 13CO2 pulse-chase based studies indicated that starch degradation ... -
Leaf δ15N as a physiological indicator of the responsiveness of N2-fixing alfalfa plants to elevated CO2, temperature and low water availability
The natural 15N/14N isotope composition (δ15N) of a tissue is a consequence of its N source and N physiological mechanisms in response to the environment. It could potentially be used as a tracer of N metabolism in plants ... -
Overexpression of thioredoxin m in tobacco chloroplasts inhibits the protein kinase STN7 and alters photosynthetic performance
The activity of the protein kinase STN7, involved in phosphorylation of the light-harvesting complex II (LHCII) proteins, has been reported as being co-operatively regulated by the redox state of the plastoquinone pool ... -
Physiological performance of transplastomic tobacco plants overexpressing aquaporin AQP1 in chloroplast membranes
The leaf mesophyll CO2 conductance and the concentration of CO2 within the chloroplast are major factors affecting photosynthetic performance. Previous studies have shown that the aquaporin NtAQP1 (which localizes to the ... -
Plastidic phosphoglucose isomerase is an important determinant of starch accumulation in mesophyll cells, growth, photosynthetic capacity, and biosynthesis of plastidic cytokinins in Arabidopsis
Phosphoglucose isomerase (PGI) catalyzes the reversible isomerization of glucose-6-phosphate and fructose-6-phosphate. It is involved in glycolysis and in the regeneration of glucose-6-P molecules in the oxidative pentose ... -
Unraveling the role of transient starch in the response of Arabidopsis to elevated CO2 under long-day conditions
Previous studies on Arabidopsis under long-term exposure to elevated CO2 have been conducted using starch synthesis and breakdown mutants cultured under short day conditions. These studies showed that starch synthesis can ... -
Unravelling the mechanisms that improve photosynthetic performance of N₂-fixing pea plants exposed to elevated [CO₂]
Although the predicted enhanced photosynthetic rates of plants exposed to elevated [CO₂] are expected to increase carbohydrate and plant growth, recent findings have shown a complex regulation of these processes. The aim ...
