Title: Cold acclimation of mesophyll conductance, bundle‐sheath conductance and leakiness in Miscanthus  ×  giganteus

Abstract

Summary The cold acclimations of mesophyll conductance ( g m ), bundle‐sheath conductance ( g bs ) and the CO 2 concentrating mechanism (CCM) of C 4 plants have not been well studied. Here, we estimated the temperature response of g m , g bs and leakiness (ϕ), the amount of concentrated CO 2 that escapes the bundle‐sheath cells, for the chilling‐tolerant C 4 plant Miscanthus  ×  giganteus grown at 14 and 25°C. To estimate these parameters, we combined the C 4 ‐enzyme‐limited photosynthesis model and the Δ 13 C discrimination model. These combined models were parameterised using in vitro activities of carbonic anhydrase (CA), pyruvate, phosphate dikinase (PPDK), ribulose‐1,5‐bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RuBisCO), and phospho enol pyruvate carboxylase (PEPc). Cold‐grown Miscanthus plants increased in vitro activities of RuBisCO and PPDK but decreased PEPc activity compared with warm‐grown plants. Mesophyll conductance and g bs responded strongly to measurement temperatures but did not differ between plants from the two growth temperatures. Furthermore, modelling showed that ϕ increased with measurement temperatures for both cold‐grown and warm‐grown plants, but was only marginally larger in cold‐grown compared with warm‐grown plants. Our results in Miscanthus support that g m and g bs are unresponsive to growth temperaturemore » and that the CCM is able to acclimate to cold through increased activity of PPDK and RuBisCO.« less
