Abstract
The water-soluble compound in Nitella which reduces CO2 in an acid-resistant compound in the dark, as possible first step in photosynthesis, is non-chloroplastic, or only weakly adsorbed on the chloroplasts and easily removed by physical injury to the living cell. Physical injury of a living cell stops this dark reduction of CO2.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
