Autotrophy in Maize Husk Leaves [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1991 The natural abundance of carbon and hydrogen isotopic composition, expressed as a delta(13)C value of plant dry matter and cellulose in the hypsophylls (husk leaves) of maize (Zea mays L.) was measured and compared with that of leaves and cobs. The delta(13)C values of outer hypsophylls were usually 2 to 3% per thousand more negative than leaves or ...

Oxygen photolysis in the Mauritanian upwelling: Implications for net community production [PDF]
, 2014 We carried out 16 photochemical experiments of filtered surface water in a custom-built solar simulator and concomitant measurements of in vitro gross primary production (GPP) and respiration (R) in the Mauritanian upwelling during a Lagrangian study ...

Physiology, phylogeny, and LUCA
Microbial Cell, 2016 Genomes record their own history. But if we want to look all the way back to life’s beginnings some 4 billion years ago, the record of microbial evolution that is preserved in prokaryotic genomes is not easy to read. Microbiology has a lot in common with

Sulfur-Oxidizing Symbionts without Canonical Genes for Autotrophic CO2 Fixation [PDF]
, 2018 Many animals and protists depend on symbiotic sulfur-oxidizing bacteria as their main food source. These bacteria use energy from oxidizing inorganic sulfur compounds to make biomass autotrophically from CO2, serving as primary producers for their hosts.

Comparison of polyhydroxybutyrate content produced by Spirulina sp. under conditions of autotraphic, heterotrophic and mixotrophic cultures [PDF]
بومشناسی آبزیان, 2019 Polyhydroxybutyrate is one of the biodegradable compounds which is produced by cyanobacteria Spirulina sp. In this study, cyanobacteria Spirulina sp isolated from water reservoirs of Guilan province were cultured in Zarrouk medium for 20 days and were ...

The Genomic Impact of Mycoheterotrophy in Orchids
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Mycoheterotrophic plants have lost the ability to photosynthesize and obtain essential mineral and organic nutrients from associated soil fungi. Despite involving radical changes in life history traits and ecological requirements, the transition from ...

Harnessing the power of microbial autotrophy
Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2016 Autotrophic microorganisms convert CO2 into biomass by deriving energy from light or inorganic electron donors. These CO2-fixing microorganisms have a large, but so far only partially realized, potential for the sustainable production of chemicals and biofuels.
