On the Nature of Carbon Isotope Discrimination in C4 Species
Abstract
Theory is developed to explain the carbon isotopic composition of plants with the dicarboxylic acid (C4) pathway of carbon fixation. It is shown how leakage of inorganic carbon from the bundle sheath cells to the mesophyll cells can affect carbon isotopic discrimination. It is suggested that different types of C4 pathways will show variation in the degree of leakiness, reflecting variations in anatomy, and in the requirements for oxygen egress from the bundle sheath cells. It is also suggested that quantum yields may reflect these variations. A simplified expression is developed relating discrimination to leakiness and the ratio of intercellular and atmospheric partial pressures of CO2.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
