A role for brassinosteroids in the regulation of photosynthesis in Cucumis sativus
Open accessAbstract
The effects of 24-epibrassinolide (EBR) spray application on gas-exchange, chlorophyll fluorescence characteristics, Rubisco activity, and carbohydrate metabolism were investigated in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L. cv. Jinchun No. 3) plants grown in a greenhouse. EBR significantly increased the light-saturated net CO(2) assimilation rate (A(sat)) from 3 h to 7d after spraying, with 0.1 mg l(-1) EBR proving most effective. Increased A(sat) in EBR-treated leaves was accompanied by increases in the maximum carboxylation rate of Rubisco (V(c,max)) and in the maximum rate of RuBP regeneration (J(max)). EBR-treated leaves also had a higher quantum yield of PSII electron transport (phi(PSII)) than the controls, which was mainly due to a significant increase in the photochemical quenching (q(P)), with no change in the efficiency of energy capture by open PSII reaction centres (F'(v)/F'(m)). EBR did not influence photorespiration. In addition, significant increases in the initial activity of Rubisco and in the sucrose, soluble sugars, and starch contents were observed followed by substantial increases in sucrose phosphate synthase (SPS), sucrose synthase (SS), and acid invertase (AI) activities after EBR treatment. It was concluded that EBR increases the capacity of CO(2) assimilation in the Calvin cycle, which was mainly attributed to an increase in the initial activity of Rubisco.

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.
