CO2-concentrating: consequences in crassulacean acid metabolism [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2002 The consequences of CO(2)-concentrating in leaf air-spaces of CAM plants during daytime organic acid decarboxylation in Phase III of CAM (crassulacean acid metabolism) are explored. There are mechanistic consequences of internal CO(2) partial pressures, p(i)(CO(2)). These are (i) effects on stomata, i.e.

Low irradiance alters carbon metabolism and delays flower stalk development in two orchids
Biologia Plantarum, 2013 In Phalaenopsis, lowering irradiance has been used to delay flower stalk development but the accompanying biochemical changes remain poorly understood. We cultured two commercial Phalaenopsis-type orchids, Phalaenopsis cv.
