Developmental dynamics of crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) in Opuntia ficus-indica [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Botany, 2023
Abstract Background and Aims The relative contributions of C3 photosynthesis and crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) during the earliest stages of development were investigated to assess how much each might contribute to cactus pear (Opuntia ficus-indica) productivity.

How to tell the time: the regulation of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase in Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) plants

open access: yesBiochemical Society Transactions, 2003
Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) plants exhibit persistent circadian rhythms of CO2 metabolism. These rhythms are driven by changes in the flux through phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase, which is regulated by reversible phosphorylation in response to a circadian oscillator.

A preliminary survey for crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) in submerged aquatic macrophytes in New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, 1988
Abstract This preliminary survey covered 13 aquatic macrophytes present at two sites in Lake Taupo and two sites in the Auckland region (northern half of the North Island, New Zealand). Three species previously unrecorded as CAM plants, Isoetes kirkii A. Braun,

Cryptic crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) in Jatropha curcas

Functional Plant Biology, 2015
Jatropha curcas L. is a drought-tolerant shrub or small tree that is a candidate bioenergy feedstock. It is a member of the family Euphorbiaceae in which both CAM and C4 photosynthesis have evolved. Here, we report that J. curcas exhibits features diagnostic of low-level CAM.

A Model for Photosynthetic Oscillations in Crassulacean Acid Metabolism (CAM)

Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1997
We propose a model of crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) describing the varying concentrations of pools of major metabolites by a system of coupled nonlinear differential equations. The model shows regular oscillations in normal day night and free-running endogeneous oscillations in continuous light.

Cell organelles from crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) plants

Planta, 1980
The intracellular distribution of enzymes involved in the Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) has been studied in Bryophyllum calycinum Salisb. and Crassula lycopodioides Lam. After separation of cell organelles by isopycnic centrifugation, enzymes of the Crassulacean acid metabolism were found in the following cell fractions: Phosphoenolpyruvate ...

Understanding trait diversity associated with crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM)

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2019
Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is a specialized mode of photosynthesis that exploits a temporal CO2 pump with nocturnal CO2 uptake and concentration to reduce photorespiration, improve water-use efficiency (WUE), and optimize the adaptability of plants to climates with seasonal or intermittent water limitations.
