PHOTOSYNTHESIS BY AQUATIC PLANTS: EFFECTS OF UNSTIRRED LAYERS IN RELATION TO ASSIMILATION OF CO2 AND HCO3−AND TO CARBON ISOTOPIC DISCRIMINATION

Open access

Abstract

Summary: We review and reassess experimental evidence which indicates that the unstirred layers of solution bathing aquatic plant cells or organs represent a major factor limiting their rate of photosynthesis under natural conditions. Unstirred layers may also limit membrane transport of HCO 3− where this occurs. Some authors have suggested that aquatic plants carry out C 4 photosynthesis and cite in support measurements of discrimination between 13 C and 12 C. We propose that this discrimination can also be a manifestation of the presence of unstirred layers or membrane transport or both.

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.
