Ontogenetic Changes in the Photosynthetic Apparatus and Effects of Cytokinins (Review)

Ontogenetic Changes in the Photosynthetic Apparatus and Effects of Cytokinins (Review) Data on structural and functional changes in the photosynthetic apparatus of agricultural plants are presented. Results of experiments with the regulatory effects of cytokinin-like phytohormones on photosynthesis are discussed. Cytokinins are involved in the structural formation and maintenance of the photosynthetic apparatus, stomatal function, supply of CO2 to carboxylation sites through the leaf mesophyll, synthesis of pigments and enzyme systems, and regulation of photoreduction and carbon metabolism. Possible mechanisms mediating the regulatory effects of cytokinins are discussed. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Applied Biochemistry and Microbiology Springer Journals

Abstract

Data on structural and functional changes in the photosynthetic apparatus of agricultural plants are presented. Results of experiments with the regulatory effects of cytokinin-like phytohormones on photosynthesis are discussed. Cytokinins are involved in the structural formation and maintenance of the photosynthetic apparatus, stomatal function, supply of CO2 to carboxylation sites through the leaf mesophyll, synthesis of pigments and enzyme systems, and regulation of photoreduction and carbon metabolism. Possible mechanisms mediating the regulatory effects of cytokinins are discussed.
