Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Reduced Rubisco reduced CO2 fixation capacity without a similar electron transport loss.
- Association Fluorescence and CO2 fixation estimates of electron transport were linearly related.
- Observation The relationships were similar in wild type and transgenic plants.
- Intervention effect Reduced CO2 fixation capacity did not produce extra electron transport outside PCR or PCO cycles.
- Observation Dark oxygen uptake resembled light uptake at high CO2 across tobacco lines.
- Association Calculated oxygenase activity was linearly related to leaf Rubisco content.
- Mechanism Electron flow to oxygen was inferred to decline with reduced ATP and NADPH demand.
