What do you think about enrichment of CO2 under in vitro conditions?
How do it affect on rate of photosynthesis, respiration and the final concentration of CO2 and O2 in this conditions after a period?
What do you think?
Many Thanks
Hello
The photosynthetic ability of plantlets enriched with CO2 enhanced, which resulted in significant increases in shoot growth and dry matter accumulation. Rubisco is a major controlling factor of photosynthesis in plantlets cultured under ambient CO2 and saturating irradiance. The decline in Rubisco activity may be attributed to a decrease in Rubisco protein, its activation state, or its specific activity. Furthermore, higher CO2 concentrations cause an increase in the proportion of Rubisco in the activated state, resulting in improved efficiency in the use of resources.
Hello Mr. Miri
Thanks for your answer. Yes, that's right.
But what do you think about final concentration of CO2 in jar?!
Please read the following article (especially page 867). I hope to be useful to you.
