Abstract:
Our previous understanding of the in situ operation of C3 photosynthetic machinery has been based on the invalid assumption of infinite mesophyll conductance. We show that this assumption significantly underestimates chloroplasts’ photosynthetic potential and distorts relationships among fundamental photosynthetic parameters. A function is developed to convert photosynthetic parameters estimated under the invalid assumption to proper values. This function facilitates the representation of mesophyll conductance in carbon cycle models.
