  4. Mesophyll conductance • Flux of CO2 to stroma (Cc) limited by gs, gm and gb • Recent work has shown gm to be variable and important • Low gm reduces CC underestimate VCmax • Cc=Ci-A/gm • Estimate gm with curve fitting • Estime gm with fluorescence and A

  5. Hedera helix; Pons et al J Exp Bot 2009

  6. Many species; Sc= surface area of chloroplasts exposed to intercellular airspace; Evans et al J Exp Bot 2009

  7. Limitations to the Farquhar/Fluorescence model of Photosynthesis • No gene expression controls • Connection to hormones, whole plant controls • Longer time scales • Stomatal physiology almost a black box • Scale of leaf patchiness violates homogeneity • Light dynamics problematic • Respiration models are crude

  8. Autotrophic Respiration • Can not describe plant growth from photosynthesis only • High N requirements for enzymes of both • Total Respiration is the sum of • Maintenance • Growth • Transport • All eukaryotes with mitochondria have cytochrome respiratory pathway • Inhibited by cyanide • Plants have cyanide resistant pathway that uses AOX • animal regulation before glycolysis, plants during

  9. Autotrophic Respiration • Respiration can be regulated by energy demand or substrate supply • Photosynthesis and respiration connected through chemiosmosis (AOX) • Ratio of CO2 to O2 (respiratory quotient) varies with tissue type and substrates used • <1 more reduced substrates • >1 more reduced products

  10. Alternative Respiration Pathway • Alternative Respiration pathway (CN resistant) • Respiration production exceeds demand, reactive oxygen species (ROS) activated • Uses alternative oxidase (AOX) instead of cytochrome electron transport chain • Generates heat • Various hypotheses about regulation and purpose • Uncoupling proteins (UCP) connect to photosynthesis • Uncoupling proteins relieve excess pH gradient in mitochondria • Photorespiration inhibited by loss of UCP, ROS problems
