Biochemical and physiological characterization of higher plants with reduced photorespiration. Progress report, May 25, 1981-March 1, 1982

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5300684
Research progress is reported in the following areas: (1) the possibility that reduced photo-respiration in the crucifer Moricandia arvensis is due to a limited C/sub 4/-photosynthesis system similar to that in the C/sub 3/-C/sub 4/ intermediate Panicum milioides has been critically evaluated; and (2) the reported effects of ploidy on the kinetic and structural properties of RuBPCase isolated from various diploid and tetraploid cultivars of perennial ryegrass has been evaluated.
