โฆ Synopsis
Green carrot callus cultures when exposed to ltC02 in a liquid medium showed light-dependent 14C-incorporation into sucrose, glutamine and malic acid. About 5 % of total ltC fixed in a 3 h period appeared in these products in the bathing medium; this was not due to tissue damage. Kinetic studies showed that the release occurred from a metabolic and not a storage compartment. The effects of DCMU, temperature and fluoroacetate demonstrated that release from this compartment was under respiratory and not photosynthetic control.
