Abstract
If respiration of a green leaf is unaltered during photosynthesis it should be the same immediately following darkening as it is several minutes later. Respiration was measured using an infra-red gas analyzer in an improved photosynthesis apparatus. The respiration rate of leaves of tobacco and several other species was several times higher immediately following darkening than the subsequent steady dark rate.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
