Presentation Transcript

  1. REWM 3500 Rangeland Plant Ecophysiology Friday, September 4, 2009 The light environment of plants and photosynthetic adaptations • Light response curve of photosynthesis • Adaptation and acclimation to variable light conditions

  2. 9.7 Response of photosynthesis to light in a C3 plant

  3. 9.8 Light-response curves of photosynthetic carbon fixation in sun and shade plants

  4. 9.10 Light-response of photosynthesis of a sun plant grown under sun or shade conditions

  5. 9.11 Changes in photosynthesis in individual needles, a complex shoot, and a forest canopy

  6. 9.1 Leaf anatomy from a legume (Thermopsis montana) grown in different light environments

  7. Sun Shade Upper palisade parenchyma Lower palisade parenchyma Spongy parenchyma

  8. Terms to know: • Light response curve • Light compensation point (LCP) • Apparent light use efficiency (phi, θ) – initial slope • Maximum rate of photosynthesis - Amax • Dark respiration (Rd) • Light limited part of curve • Carboxylation limited part of curve • Sun and shade leaves • Palisade layer • Spongy layer • Grana stacks • Leaf level adaptation and acclimation
