Plant water regime
• Regulation of gas exchange by stomatal opening– Stomatal limitation of transpiration rate and
photosynthetic rate
– Water use efficiency
– Global climate change
– Antitranspirants

Regulation of transpiration
• Limitation of transpiration rate (E) by stomatal conductance (gs):
• lsE = (E/E) / (gs/gs)
• lsE = rs / (ra + rs + ri)
• dependent mostly on ra
• transpiration of canopy is dependent on leaf transpiration and LAI
• stomatal limitation of transpiration is generally higher than stomatal limitation of photosynthetic rate

Regulation of photosynthetic rate
• Stomatal limitation of photosynthetic rate
• lsPN = (PN/PN) / (gs/gs)
• lsF = rs / (ra + rs + ri + rm)
• stomatal and nonstomatal limitation of photosynthetic rate
• determination of photosynthetic rate under high CO2 concentration, simultaneous measurements of gas exchange and chlorophyll fluorescence, calculation by models
• Cowan, Farquhar (1977): optimum stomatal regulation = maximum carbon gain at minimum water loss
E/PN = E/gs/PN/gs = const.

Photosynthesis under stress
Stomatal limitation of photosynthesisNon-stomatal limitation of photosynthesis• decrease in gm
• decrease in carbonic anhydrase activity• decrease in ATP formation • decrease in carboxylation, decrease in amount and activity of RuBPC,
decrease in RuBP regeneration• decrease in pigment content due to decrease in their synthesis and increase in
their degradation. Car are more stable that Chl. Importance of Car and xanthophylls as defence against photoinhibition
• decrease in activities of photosystem 1 and 2 often in consequence of damage of chloroplast ultrastructure. PS 2 usually more sensitive than PS 1 (PS 2 - degradation and slow recovery of D1 protein). Indicators are changes in Chl a fluorescence
Photoinhibition, leaf movements against photoinhibitionLimitation of photosynthesis by accumulation of photosynthates under decreased
transportGene expression, rbcS, rbcL

WUE
• WUE = PN/E
• 1 mol CO2 per 300 - 500 (C3), 250 (C4) or 100 (CAM) mol of water
• (DH2O/DCO2 = 1.7)
•
• WUEm = M/E
• WUE i („intrinsic“ WUE) = PN/gs
• Under mild stress WUE is usually increased, but under severe stress WUE is often decreased

Relationship between transpiration rate and photosynthetic rate as affected by irradiance

Methods for WUE determination
• Measurements of gas exchange
• Carbon isotope discrimination 13C ‰ = (Rsample/Rstandard - 1) 1000, R = 13C/12C
13C for CO2 diffusion in air -7.8 ‰, for CO2 transport in cytoplasm -9.5 to -17.7 ‰, Rubisco – 23.8 ‰, PEPC – 2.03 ‰
Rubisco PEPC, diffusion
13C for C3 plants -23 až -36 ‰, C4 -9 až -18 ‰, CAM -9 až -36 ‰
13C = 13Cair - 13Cleaf
• Farquhar et al. 1989: 13CP ‰ = 13Ca - a - (b - a) ci/ca,
• where 13Ca - 13C in air, 13CP - 13C in plant, a - 13C connected with CO2 diffusion, b - 13C during carbon fixation by RuBPC, ci/ca - internal and ambient CO2 concentration ratio
• higher WUE lower ci/ca lower 13C

Methods for WUE determination
• Oxygen isotope discrimination (Barbour et al. 2002) 18O ‰ = (Rsample/Rstandard - 1) 1000, R = 18O/16O
18Oe = 18Os + * + k + (18Ov - 18Os - k) ea/ei
• where 18Oe - 18O at site of evaporation, 18Os - 18O water source, 18Ov - 18O in air, * - decrease in water vapour tension due to heavier isotope, k - fractionation during diffusion through air boundary layer and stomata, ea/ei - ratio of ambient and internal water vapour concentration

Global climate change
Elevation of CO2 concentration
Increased temperature
More often occurrence of drought

Effects of increased CO2 concentration
1) Short-term increase induces increase of PN
2) Long-term increase induces increase or decrease of PN
3) E and gs remain unchanged or decrease
4) WUE increases
5) Water consumption decreases or increases

Antitranspirants
• 1) film-forming antitranspirants (e.g. polyvinyliden chloride, polyvinyl chloride, polystyrene, polyethylene, polypropylene, silicon) – no compound is more permeable for CO2 than for water
• 2) inhibitors of stomata opening (e.g. CO2, ABA, phenylmercuric acetate) – often expensive or poisonous
• 3) compound increasing reflectance (e.g. kaolin)
• in all cases not only decrease in transpiration rate but also in photosynthetic rate and growth, therefore practical use only in special cases
