C3 photosynthesis in silico

Photosynthesis Research, 2006
A computer model comprising light reactions, electron-proton transport, enzymatic reactions, and regulatory functions of C3 photosynthesis has been developed as a system of differential budget equations for intermediate compounds. The emphasis is on electron transport through PSII and PSI and on the modeling of Chl fluorescence and 810 nm absorptance ...

Understanding the biochemistry of C3 photosynthesis in crop plants

2023
The C3 cycle is the primary biochemical pathway for fixation of atmospheric CO₂ in over 85% of plants, including the major crop species. This pathway is autocatalytic involving eleven enzymes catalysing 13 reactions and provides carbon compounds directly for the synthesis of isoprenoids, sucrose, starch, phenylpropanoids, thiamine and nucleotides.

Understanding the genetics of C3 photosynthesis in crop plants

2023
Understanding the genetics of C3 photosynthesis, particularly its regulation, is essential to undertake photosynthetic improvement. The expression of the photosynthesis-associated genes is regulated at different levels (transcriptional, post-transcriptional, post-translational), but very little is known about the regulatory networks involved.

Demonstration of C3-photosynthesis in a bluegreen alga, Coccochloris peniocystis

Planta, 1980
Air-grown cells of the cyanobacterium, Coccochloris peniocystis Kutz were exposed to [(14)C] bicarbonate in the light for periods of 0.5 to 2.0 s followed by longer exposures to unlabelled bicarbonate. Although C4 acids are among the initial products of photosynthesis, the kinetics of tracer movement during the pulse-chase experiments demonstrate that ...

Are there species in the genus Clusia with obligate C3-photosynthesis?

Journal of Plant Physiology, 1998
Summary Most of the species in the genus Clusia are very flexible in their photosynthetic pathway, and are C 3 -photosynthesis/Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) intermediate species; therefore, the identification and clear assignment of Clusia -species to C 3 - or CAM-pathways is difficult.

Photosynthesis and nitrogen relationships in leaves of C3 plants

Oecologia, 1989
The photosynthetic capacity of leaves is related to the nitrogen content primarily bacause the proteins of the Calvin cycle and thylakoids represent the majority of leaf nitrogen. To a first approximation, thylakoid nitrogen is proportional to the chlorophyll content (50 mol thylakoid N mol-1 Chl).

Biochemistry of C3-photosynthesis in high CO2

Journal of Plant Research, 1994
The short-term responses of C3 photosynthesis to high CO2 are described first. Regulation of photosynthesis in the short term is determined by interaction among the capacities of light harvesting, electron transport, ribulose-1, 5-bisphosphate carboxylase (Rubisco) and orthophosphate (Pi) regeneration during starch and sucrose synthesis.

Integrating C4 photosynthesis into C3 crops to increase yield potential

Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 2012
The growth rate of the human population is faster than improvements in crop yields. To feed people in the future, multiple strategies are required. One proposed approach is to raise the yield potential of C(3) crops by modifying photosynthesis to the more efficient C(4) pathway.
