Quantification of Cyclic Electron Flow in Spinach Leaf Discs
We quantified the photosynthetic cyclic electron flux (CEF) around Photosystem I as the difference between the total electron flux through PS I (ETR1) and the linear electron flux through both photosystems. Bo...

The Effects of Antisense Suppression of δ Subunit of Chloroplast ATP Synthase on the Rates of Chloroplast Electron Transport and CO2 Assimilation in Transgenic Tobacco
In C3 plants, CO2 assimilation is limited by RuBP regeneration rate at high CO2. RuBP regeneration rate in turn is determined by either the chloroplast electron transport capacity to generate NADPH and ATP or the...

Regulation of CO2 Assimilation Rate by the Chloroplast Cytochrome BF Complex
The photosynthetic electron transport pathway is responsible for the provision of ATP and NADPH for photosynthetic carbon reduction (PCR) and as such it has the potential to exert strong regulation over photos...

High Temperature Inhibition of Photosynthesis Requires Rubisco Activase for Reversibility
High temperature can limit plant growth and inhibit photosynthesis. One of the ways that high temperature can reduce the rate of photosynthesis involves deactivation of rubisco (Weis, 1980; Kobza and Edwards, ...
