Effect of light quality on diffusion limitations of photosynthesis
NEUWIRTHOVÁ, Jitka
Mesophyll conductance to CO2 transport is one of crucial components of diffusionall limitations of photosynthesis and is characterized by CO2 flux from sub-stomatal cavity to chloroplast stroma. Using Gas-exchange measurements A/Ci curves were analysed and by instantaneous carbon isotope discrimination mesophyll conductance was estimated. Measurements were conducted by sunflower irradiated with different light quality (blue, red and green component of photosynthetic active radiation).
Water use efficiency of plants measured by carbon 13 isotope discrimination
ZÁLESKÝ, Ondřej
Carbon isotope discrimination (?13C) may be an appropriate measure for determination of the water use efficiency (WUE) of plants. This work confirms the negative correlation of ?13C and WUE in selected genotypes of barley and wheat. It also deals with the suitability of using the observed relationship in breeding of drought resistant crops.
