Carbon acquisition by Trichodesmium: the effect of pCO2 and diurnal changes
Abstract
We investigated carbon acquisition by the N 2‐fixing cyanobacterium Trichodesmium IMS101 in response to CO 2 levels of 15.1, 37.5, and 101.3 Pa (equivalent to 150, 370, and 1000 ppm). In these acclimations, growth rates as well as cellular C and N contents were measured. In vivo activities of carbonic anhydrase (CA), photosynthetic O 2 evolution, and CO 2 and HCO 3‐ fluxes were measured using membrane inlet mass spectrometry and the 14 C disequilibrium technique. While no differences in growth rates were observed, elevated CO 2 levels caused higher C and N quotas and stimulated photosynthesis and N 2 fixation. Minimal extracellular CA (eCA) activity was observed, indicating a minor role in carbon acquisition. Rates of CO 2 uptake were small relative to total inorganic carbon (Ci) fixation, whereas HCO{3 contributed more than 90% and varied only slightly over the light period and between CO 2 treatments. The low eCA activity and preference for HCO 3‐ were verified by the 14 C disequilibrium technique. Regarding apparent affinities, half‐saturation concentrations (K1/2) for photosynthetic O 2 evolution and HCO 3‐ uptake changed markedly over the day and with CO 2 concentration. Leakage (CO 2 efflux : Ci uptake) showed pronounced diurnal changes. Our findings do not support a direct CO 2 effect on the carboxylation efficiency of ribulose‐1,5‐bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RubisCO) but point to a shift in resource allocation among photosynthesis, carbon acquisition, and N 2 fixation under elevated CO 2 levels. The observed increase in photosynthesis and N 2 fixation could have potential biogeochemical implications, as it may stimulate productivity in N‐limited oligotrophic regions and thus provide a negative feedback in rising atmospheric CO 2 levels.

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.
