Organic acids are synthesized in plants as a result of the incomplete oxidation of
photosynthetic products and represent the stored pools of fixed carbon accumulated due to …

The term photorespiration was first used to describe a possible acceleration of tricarboxylic
acid cycle respiration in the light in photosynthotic tissues [1]. It now refers to concurrent CO2 …

Chromosome-containing micronuclei are a hallmark of aggressive cancers. Micronuclei
frequently undergo irreversible collapse, exposing their enclosed chromatin to the cytosol …

Developments in the study of microbodies in higher plants since 1971 are reviewed. Topics
discussed are: the sources and constituents of glyoxysomes, leaf peroxisomes, and …

The photorespiratory pathway is described, together with the mutants which have been
isolated for this metabolic pathway. Some of the key regulatory properties of the …

The magnitude of the percentage inhibition of photosynthesis by atmospheric levels of O2 in
the C3 species Solanum tuberosum L., Medicago sativa L., Phaseolus vulgaris L., Glycine …

A mutant line of barley, R (othamsted)-Pr 79/4, has been isolated which grows poorly in
natural air, but normally in air enriched to 0.2% CO 2. Analysis of the products of 14 CO 2 …

Photorespiration recovers carbon that would be otherwise lost following the oxygenation
reaction of rubisco and production of glycolate. Photorespiration is essential in plants and …

Manipulation of the CO 2 concentration of the atmosphere allows the selection of
photorespiratory mutants from populations of seeds treated with powerful mutagens such as …
