The study proposes to evaluate the photosynthetic plasticity of Rhizophora mangle L. in four mangrove sites distributed along with the Great Vitória Estuarine System. The variation in organic matter content, which implies the higher essential nutrient availability, contributed to better energy flux performance related to electron transport. Furthermore, salinity damaged the reaction centers (RC), since the site with the highest salinity showed changes in the number and size of active photosynthetic RC and in the specific energy flows per active RC (absorption flux, trapped energy flux, and dissipated energy flux), but the plasticity of the species in response to salt stress was confirmed by the increase of performance index for energy conservation ( PI Total ), net photosynthetic rate ( P N ), and the water-use efficiency (WUE). Also, the results showed that the luminous intensity available compromises the functionality of PSII, in turn, it increases WUE. The results indicate the effect of the chlorophyll a content, which provides more substrate for light absorption, on the electron flow and PI Total is related to P N and WUE. The study indicates the ecological plasticity of R. mangle to the conditions of the evaluated area.","PeriodicalId":20157,"journal":{"name":"Photosynthetica","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2022-05-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90695494","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In nature, plants are often confronted with wide variations in light intensity, which may cause a massive carbon loss and water waste. Here, we investigated the response of photosynthetic rate and stomatal conductance to fluctuating light among ten rice genotypes and their influence on plant acclimation and intrinsic water-use efficiency (WUE i ). Significant differences were observed in photosynthetic induction and stomatal kinetics across rice genotypes. However, no significant correlation was observed between steady-state and non-steady-state gas exchange. Genotypes with a greater range of steady-state and faster response rate of the gas exchange showed stronger adaptability to fluctuating light. Higher stomatal conductance during the initial phase of induction had little effect on the photosynthetic rate but markedly decreased the plant WUE i . Clarification of the mechanism influencing the dynamic gas exchange and synchronization between photosynthesis and stomatal conductance under fluctuating light may contribute to the improvement of photosynthesis and water-use efficiency in the future.","PeriodicalId":20157,"journal":{"name":"Photosynthetica","volume":"220 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2022-05-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86678824","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study was financially supported by the project IKYDA-FUTUREOAKS Oaks may contribute to the stabilization of European forests under climate change. We utilized two common gardens established in contrasting growth regimes, in Greece (Olympiada) and Germany (Schwanheim), to compare the diurnal photosynthetic performance of a Greek and an Italian provenance of two Mediterranean oaks ( Quercus pubescens and Q. frainetto ) during the 2019 growing season. Although the higher radiation in the southern common garden led to a strong midday depression of chlorophyll a fluorescence parameters (maximum quantum efficiency of PSII, performance index on absorption basis), comparable light-saturated net photosynthetic rates were achieved in both study areas. Moreover, both species and provenances exhibited analogous responses. Q. pubescens had enhanced chlorophyll a fluorescence traits but similar photosynthetic rates compared to Q. frainetto , whereas the provenances did not differ. These findings indicate the high photosynthetic efficiency of both oaks under the current climate in Central Europe and their suitability for assisted migration schemes.","PeriodicalId":20157,"journal":{"name":"Photosynthetica","volume":"2017 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2022-05-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87856147","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Conflict of interest : The authors declare that they have no conflict of interest. The sustainable production of upland cotton, an economically important fiber crop, is threatened by changing environmental factors including high temperatures and low-soil water content. Both high heat and low-soil water can reduce net photosynthesis resulting in low fiber yields or poor fiber quality. Leaf chlorophyll content has a direct relationship with photosynthetic rate. Understanding how high heat and low-soil water affect chlorophyll content can identify opportunities for breeding improvement that will lead to sustainable fiber yields. A two-year field trial located in Maricopa Arizona measured leaf chlorophyll content, available soil water, ambient air temperatures, and cotton growth measurements collected by a high-clearance tractor equipped with proximal sensors. The results showed that low-soil water significantly increased leaf chlorophyll content, while high temperatures significantly reduced content. Structured equation modeling revealed that cotton may divert available resources to leaf area and chlorophyll content for the production of photosynthates during periods of high temperatures.","PeriodicalId":20157,"journal":{"name":"Photosynthetica","volume":"78 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2022-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79230882","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
