SUMMARY Winter hydroponic growth of several lettuce cultivars under glass showed considerable inhibition (up to 47 %) of growth after 6 wk exposure to concentrations of NO (+ NO2; 450 nl 1' in total) typical of emissions from propane burners used for

Tomato plants were transferred to different CO 2 mole fractions (350, 700, 1050 and 1400 μmol CO 2 mol -1 ) 31 d after sowing (2 % of full expansion) and the light saturated rate of photosynthesis (P max ) of the unshaded 5th leaf was measured at ei

Summary The abundance of rbcS transcripts, derived from the nuclear gene-family coding for the small subunit of RuBisCO, was dramatically reduced in tomato plants exposed to high CO2 for 4 days or more whereas the decline in the rbcL RNA transcripts,

To test the possible interaction of polyamines in plant growth responses, transgenic tobacco plants containing the Avena sativa L. (oat) arginine decarboxylase (ADC) gene under the control of a tetracycline-inducible promoter were generated. Inducibl

A 16-h photoperiod stimulated bud burst in mature rooted cuttings of Prunus avium cv. Stella, but not in selfed Stella seedlings. However, in a 12-h photoperiod, bud burst occurred earlier in the seedlings than in the mature cuttings. In the 12-h pho

Although down-regulation of photosynthesis in higher C3 plants exposed to long-term elevated CO2 has been recognized in plants with low sink activity or poor nutrient status, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. This review covers aspe

To predict the future carbon sequestering capacity of trees, we need information about the possible acclimatory mechanisms of plant growth and photosynthesis in rising atmospheric CO(2) under a variety of environmental conditions. We have, therefore,

Phosphoenolpyruvate, which is the substrate for the enzyme for the enzyme pyruvate kinase, is also hydrolysed by a phosphatase when the former enzyme is assayed in unpurified extracts from plant tissues. The activity of this phosphatase has been exam

The activities of pyruvate kinase and a phosphatase in the leaves of tomato and cucumber may be used as indicators of the potassium and magnesium status of the plants and provide an estimate of the concentration of “available” magnesium in the le

Tomato plants were grown in sand for 5 weeks and received one of fifteen different nutrient solutions in which the concentrations of various elements were either reduced or increased individually, relative to their concentration in a complete nutrien
