Abstract:

Photosynthesis is fundamental to biomass production, but is a dynamic process sensitive to environmental constraints. In recent years, approaches to increase biomass and grain yield by altering photosynthetically related processes in the plant have received considerable attention. However, improving biomass yield requires a predictive understanding of the molecular mechanisms that allow photosynthesis to be adjusted. The important roles of metabolic reactions external to those directly involved in photosynthesis are highlighted in this review; however, our major focus is on the routes taken to

The rates of light limited (αB) and light saturated (PmaxB) photosynthesis per unit chlorophyll often showed significant differences between samples collected from the top and the bottom of the mixed layer in Lake Erken (59° 51′ N). The importance of these vertical variations to the photosynthetic rate of the lake as a whole was examined by systematically changing the vertical weighting given to the biomass specific photosynthetic rates associated with each depth, when calculating integral photosynthesis.

Abstract:

Maize (Zea mays L.) benefits from heterosis in-yield formation and photosynthetic efficiency through optimizing canopy structure and improving leaf photosynthesis. However, the role of canopy structure and photosynthetic capacity in determining heterosis in biomass production and radiation use efficiency has not been separately clarified. We developed a quantitative framework based on a phytomer-based three-dimensional canopy photosynthesis model and simulated light capture and canopy photosynthetic production in scenarios with and without heterosis in either canopy structure or leaf photosynt

Potassium (K) and magnesium (Mg) deficiency are common stresses that can impact on grape yield and quality, but their effects on photosynthesis have received little attention.

Major research on photosynthesis has been carried out under steady light. However, in the natural environment, steady light is rare, and light intensity is always changing. Changing light affects (usually reduces) photosynthetic carbon assimilation and causes decreases in biomass and yield.

Abstract:

Eutrophication due to high load of nutrients from the catchment is significant worldwide problem causing impairment of water ecosystems and water quality. The reason is tight connection of eutrophication with photosynthetic biomass production of blue green algae resulting in extreme changes of oxygen level, anoxia at the bottom and release of toxic substances in water. Acceleration and extension of eutrophication due to human activities together with insufficient human understanding of the ecological role of photosynthesis of aquatic plants leads to inappropriate water and landscape management

Banded iron formation (BIF) deposition was the likely result of oxidation of ferrous iron in seawater by either oxygenic photosynthesis or iron-dependent anoxygenic photosynthesis—photoferrotrophy. BIF deposition, however, remains enigmatic because the photosynthetic biomass produced during iron oxidation is conspicuously absent from BIFs. We have addressed this enigma through experiments with photosynthetic bacteria and modeling of biogeochemical cycling in the Archean oceans. Our experiments reveal that, in the presence of silica, photoferrotroph cell surfaces repel iron (oxyhydr)oxides. In

Abstract:

Drought stress is a prevalent abiotic stress that adversely affects multiple physiological processes in plants, especially their photosynthetic capacity. Application of plant growth–promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) has been considered as an eco-friendly strategy to ameliorate the deleterious effects of drought stress on plants. The present study was carried out to investigate the effects of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens QST713 on plant growth, leaf relative water content (RWC), photosynthesis processes, photosynthetic pigment content and antioxidant enzyme activities in two alfalfa varieties, Galal

Abstract:

The ongoing effects of climate change, including rising temperatures, erratic precipitation, and frequent droughts, are increasingly threatening agricultural productivity worldwide. These environmental stressors have a direct impact on plant growth, photosynthesis, and crop yields. Therefore, understanding how different plant types cope with these stresses is crucial for ensuring global food security. This study compares the photosynthetic efficiency and resilience of C3 and C4 plants, using wheat (Triticum aestivum) as a representative C3 species and maize (Zea mays) as a C4 species. Both pla

Abstract:

Photosynthetic manipulation is seen as a promising avenue for advancing field crop productivity. However, progress is constrained by the lack of connection between leaf-level photosynthetic manipulation and crop performance. Here we report on the development of a model of diurnal canopy photosynthesis for well watered conditions by using biochemical models of C3 and C4 photosynthesis upscaled to the canopy level using the simple and robust sun–shade leaves representation of the canopy. The canopy model was integrated over the time course of the day for diurnal canopy photosynthesis simulation.

Photosynthesis is central to all life on earth, providing not only oxygen but also organic compounds that are synthesized from atmospheric CO2and water using light energy as the driving force. The still-increasing world population poses a serious challenge to further enhance biomass production of crop plants. Crop yield is determined by various parameters,inter aliaby the light energy conversion efficiency of the photosynthetic machinery. Photosynthesis can be looked at from different perspectives: (i) light reactions and carbon assimilation, (ii) leaves and canopy structure, and (ii) source-s

Constructed grasslands are primary restoration measures in areas with degraded natural grasslands. Grass–legume mixtures are chosen to obtain high production and forage quality; however, the photosynthetic and other traits of such mixtures are not well understood.

Bromus inermis and Elymus nutans were grown as monocultures or in mixtures with Medicago sativa. We analysed forage yields, quality, gas exchange and chlorophyll fluorescence param

During the propagation of herbaceous stem-tip cuttings, the photosynthetic daily light integral (DLI) inside greenhouses can be low (≈1–4 mol·m−2·d−1) during the winter and early spring when propagation typically occurs. The mechanisms by which cuttings adapt biomass allocation patterns, gas exchange, and starch accumulation in response to the photosynthetic DLI are not clearly understood. Our objectives were to quantify the impact of DLI on growth, photosynthesis, and carbohydrate concentration during the root development phase of cutting propagation.

Three willow species (Salix alba, Salix matsudana and Salix nigra) were exposed to very high cadmium (Cd) concentrations in order to define some physiological traits related to high biomass production. Plants were grown hydroponically under semi-controlled conditions (greenhouse). It was assumed that leaves accumulate different amounts of Cd in relation to their age due to the specific occurrence of symptoms generated by Cd accumulation. The rate of photosynthesis and concentration of photosynthetic pigments in young and old leaves was correlated with biomass production in order to ascertain t

Biotic carbon (C) sequestration is currently being considered as a viable option for mitigating atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) emission, in which photosynthesis plays a significant role.

A strong correlation between flag leaf photosynthesis and stomatal density (r = 0.891) was detected. Photosynthetic efficiency was highest in the variety WH-1021 (28.93 µmol m–2 s–1).

The amount of light impinging on the surface of the earth vastly surpasses the energy needs of life including man. Harvesting the sun is, therefore, an option for a sustainable energy source: directly by improving biomass production, indirectly by coupling it to the production of hydrogen for fuel or, conceptually, by using photosynthetic strategies for technological solutions based on non-biological or hybrid materials.

There was a highly significant reduction in root biomass, shoot growth and total leaf area of plants grown in compacted soil. Soil compaction also significantly reduced photosynthetic rate and increased root rot severity. The reduction in growth for plants subjected to soil compaction is attributable partly due to a decrease in photosynthetic rate and to an increase in root rot severity. Key words: Phaseolus vul
