Explain the relationship between the light and dark reactions.
In an effort to increase the efficiency of photosynthesis in crop plants, researchers have genetically engineered tobacco plants (a model organism) to express cyanobacterial carboxylase, which has lower oxygenase activity. However, tobacco plant growth was not enhanced unless the plants were also engineered to express the cyanobacterial genes for bicarbonate transporters. Explain this observation.
Calculate the energy of one mole of photons of red light ( nm).
Describe the chemistry of the RuBP carboxylase reaction.
Why would 鈥渒nocking out鈥 a gene for a chloroplast fatty acid desaturase (an enzyme involved in synthesizing fatty acids containing threedouble bonds) increase the rate of photosynthesis at a temperatureat which photosynthesis is normally impaired?
