Regulation of Leaf Senescence by Cytokinin, Sugars, and Light. Effects on NADH-Dependent Hydroxypyruvate Reductase [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The aim of this study was to investigate the interactions between cytokinin, sugar repression, and light in the senescence-related decline in photosynthetic enzymes of leaves. In transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) plants that induce the production of

The phase separation underlying the pyrenoid-based microalgal Rubisco supercharger

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
The slow and promiscuous properties of the CO2-fixing enzyme Rubisco constrain photosynthetic efficiency and have prompted the evolution of powerful CO2 concentrating mechanisms (CCMs).

Rubisco: The Enzyme that Keeps on Giving [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2007
In cyanobacteria, the RbcX protein enhances the production of Rubisco, the multisubunit enzyme that catalyzes the first step of carbon dioxide fixation in most autotrophic organisms. In this issue of Cell, Saschenbrecker et al. (2007) report that RbcX acts as a specific assembly chaperone that mobilizes the large subunits of Rubisco to a specific ...

Reflectance spectroscopy predicts leaf functional traits across wine grape cultivars

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Characterizing variability in crop traits is key for understanding agroecosystem responses to environmental change. However, trait data are often time‐consuming to collect and therefore still limit our understanding and predictions of agriculture responses to environmental change.

Fire Blight Management: Physiological Assessment of Cultural Control By Pruning in Pear Orchards

open access: yesAgriculture, 2020
The aim of this work was to evaluate the photosynthetic performance of Pear trees (cv. ‘Rocha’) infected with Erwinia amylovora, three months after suffering a pruning of infected branches (P-trees) compared with asymptomatic trees (C-trees) of the same ...

Functional hybrid rubisco enzymes with plant small subunits and algal large subunits: engineered rbcS cDNA for expression in chlamydomonas. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
There has been much interest in the chloroplast-encoded large subunit of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) as a target for engineering an increase in net CO(2) fixation in photosynthesis.

Effects of Overproduction of Rubisco Activase on Rubisco Content in Transgenic Rice Grown at Different N Levels

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
It has been reported that overproduction of Rubisco activase (RCA) in rice (Oryza sativa L.) decreased Rubisco content, resulting in declining photosynthesis.

Growth inhibition of arable weeds by cerato‐platanin, a plant immune defense activator of fungal origin

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Plants possess an innate immune system able to detect pathogens' molecules such as cerato‐platanin (CP), a protein produced by the fungus Ceratocystis platani. This study shows that the application of this protein elicitor to weeds can be exploited as a novel herbicide mode of action.

Biogenesis and Metabolic Maintenance of Rubisco.

open access: yesAnnual Review of Plant Biology, 2017
Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) mediates the fixation of atmospheric CO2 in photosynthesis by catalyzing the carboxylation of the 5-carbon sugar ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP).

Ecotoxicology of Mercerized Cellulose–Treated Tannery Effluents Using Salvinia auriculata (Salviniaceae) as a Bioindicator

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Given the growing concern over the environmental impacts of industrial effluents, particularly from tanneries, assessing the ecotoxicological risks associated with these effluents, even after remediation treatments, is crucial. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the potential effects of exposure to raw and treated tannery effluents with ...
