Merr.) soybean can be increased by increasing photosynthetic efficiency. The yield of cultivars with high photosynthetic efficiency (HPE) increased by 30% - 40% in comparison with the cultivars with normal photosynthetic efficiency, indicating that the breeding of soybean by increasing RPE may have a bright prospect. HPE breeding can be used as the temporal monitoring in the breeding process to avoid the divergency of the predetermined goal, although HPE breeding does not shorten the breeding time. It was observed that limited C-4 pathway exists in soybean leaf and pod, suggesting that by increasing the genetic expression of some C-4 enzymes in C-3 crops through traditional or genetic engineering techniques, new breakthroughs in increasing the photosynthetic efficiency of C-3 plant may be practicable in the future.展开更多

The light induced damage of pheophytin a (pheo a) in the complex was observed for the first time. The content of pheo a decreased about 47% by illumination, suggesting only one of the two pheo a molecules in the PSⅡ reaction center complex was damaged. No damage of β carotene was found.展开更多

The results showed that: (1) There is one pheo a molecule which is not associated with the primary photochemistry in the PSⅡ reaction center complex. It may be considered that there are two different electron transfer branches in the PSⅡ reaction center just as in the purple bacterium photosynthetic reaction center. (2) The damaged pheo a may be attributed to the one bonding to the D2 protein comparing the D2 subunit in the PSⅡ reaction center with M subunit in the purple bacterium photosynthetic reaction center. (3) A possible arrangement model of redox cofactors in the PSⅡ reaction center was proposed based on our experiment.展开更多
