Table 2.
Respiration parameter | WT | CMSII | Ratio CMSII/WT |
Rl (μmol CO2 m−2 s−1)a | 0.45±0.04 | 0.66±0.07 | 1.5* |
Rdc (μmol CO2 m−2 s−1)a | 1.50±0.05 | 1.81±0.08 | 1.2* |
Vt (Rd) (μmol O2 m−2 s−1) | 0.89±0.06 | 1.30±0.10 | 1.5* |
Means and standard errors of at least four plants are shown. Asterisks indicate significant differences (P ≤0.05) between WT and CMSII for each parameter. For details see Materials and methods.
These respiration parameters have been determined in leaves of another set of WT and CMSII plants, which were grown under similar conditions as the well-watered plants used for the Vt measurement.
