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.

CRASSULACEAN ACID METABOLISM: Molecular Genetics

, 1999
▪ Abstract  Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is an adaptation of photosynthesis to limited availability of water or CO2. CAM is characterized by nocturnal CO2 fixation via the cytosolic enzyme PEP carboxylase (PEPC), formation of PEP by glycolysis ...

Facultative CAM and photosynthetic electron transport: unravelling the salinity acclimation puzzle in Mesembryanthemum crystallinum

Frontiers in Plant Science
Progressive soil salinisation is a major constraint to agriculture, and deciphering resistance strategies in plants adapted to such harsh environments has the potential for improving salinity tolerance in crops. Efficient regulation of the photosynthetic

Effect of dietary supplementation with conjugated linoleic acid on markers of calcium and bone metabolism in healthy adult men.

, 2005
INTRODUCTION: Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) has been shown to positively influence calcium and bone metabolism in experimental animals and cells in culture, but there are limited human data available.

Conservation and Diversification of Circadian Rhythmicity Between a Model Crassulacean Acid Metabolism Plant Kalanchoë fedtschenkoi and a Model C3 Photosynthesis Plant Arabidopsis thaliana

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) improves photosynthetic efficiency under limited water availability relative to C3 photosynthesis. It is widely accepted that CAM plants have evolved from C3 plants and it is hypothesized that CAM is under the control ...

Crassulacean acid metabolism: plastic, fantastic

, 2002
The occurrence, activity and plasticity of the CAM pathway is described from an introductory viewpoint, framed by the use of the four 'Phases' of CAM as comparative indicators of the interplay between environmental constraints and internal molecular and ...

High folic acid consumption leads to pseudo-MTHFR deficiency, altered lipid metabolism, and liver injury in mice. [PDF]

, 2015
Increased consumption of folic acid is prevalent, leading to concerns about negative consequences. The effects of folic acid on the liver, the primary organ for folate metabolism, are largely unknown.

The correlation between crassulacean acid metabolism and water uptake in Senecio medley-woodii.

, 1985
The combination of a chamber for CO2 gas exchange with a potometric measuring arrangement allowed concomitant investigations into CO2 gas exchange, transpiration and water uptake by the roots of whole plants of Senecio medley-woodii, a species which ...
