Alternative mechanisms of carbon fixation
Plants evolved ~475 myaBig problem for terrestrial plants = dehydration
So…different carbon fixation pathways have evolved in hot, arid (dry) climates
![Page 6: Chapter 10 (Part 4) Alternative Pathways & Photosynthesis (Plant Evolution) Ms. Gaynor AP Biology.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142ca1550346d8488b5d94/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Remember Stomata Leaf “pores” usually on UNDERSIDE of leaf…why?
Allows O2 out and CO2 in for photosynthesis
Allows H2O out through transpiration (“plant sweating”)
![Page 7: Chapter 10 (Part 4) Alternative Pathways & Photosynthesis (Plant Evolution) Ms. Gaynor AP Biology.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142ca1550346d8488b5d94/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
On hot, dry days, plants close their stomata (“pores”) Conserving water but limiting access
to CO2 reduces photosynthesis Causing oxygen to build up WHY??? http://academic.kellogg.edu/herbrandsonc/bio111/

![Page 8: Chapter 10 (Part 4) Alternative Pathways & Photosynthesis (Plant Evolution) Ms. Gaynor AP Biology.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142ca1550346d8488b5d94/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
All plants carry out photosynthesis by…adding carbon dioxide (CO2) to a RuBP
Catalyzed by the enzyme RUBISCO
RuBP+CO2 breaks down IMMEDIATELY 3-PGA
3-PGA + ATP 1,3-PGA reduced to G3P by NADPH
The process is called the Calvin cycle and the pathway is called the C3 pathway.
![Page 9: Chapter 10 (Part 4) Alternative Pathways & Photosynthesis (Plant Evolution) Ms. Gaynor AP Biology.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142ca1550346d8488b5d94/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
C3 Plants (“regular” calvin cycle)
Plants add CO2 in carbon fixation to RuBP (by Rubisco)
Occurs in MESOPHYLL cells of leaf
Called C3 plants b/c 1st product of carbon fixation is a 3 carbon compoundEx: Rice, Wheat , Soy
But…on hot days, stomata close reduces sugar productionO2 builds up
Ex: droughts little water but HOT little sugar production
![Page 10: Chapter 10 (Part 4) Alternative Pathways & Photosynthesis (Plant Evolution) Ms. Gaynor AP Biology.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142ca1550346d8488b5d94/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
RUBISCO ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase oxygenase (RUBISCO)Can bind CO2
Also has affinity for/can bind O2
Depends on concentrations of CO2 and O2
![Page 11: Chapter 10 (Part 4) Alternative Pathways & Photosynthesis (Plant Evolution) Ms. Gaynor AP Biology.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142ca1550346d8488b5d94/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
So…why is this a problem?Light Reactions gives off O2
More O2 dissolves in cytoplasm of cell at higher temperatures b/c more light rxns occuring
Therefore, high light intensities and high temperatures (above ~
30°C) favor the second reaction (oxygenase action) of Rubisco.
![Page 12: Chapter 10 (Part 4) Alternative Pathways & Photosynthesis (Plant Evolution) Ms. Gaynor AP Biology.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142ca1550346d8488b5d94/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Photorespiration: An Evolutionary Relic?
In photorespirationO2 substitutes for CO2 (competitive
inhibitor) in active site of enzyme RubiscoRubisco adds O2 to Calvin cycle NOT CO2
product made and splits into 2-C can’t make G3P
Occurs in light (photo) and uses O2 and releases CO2 (respiration)
NO ATP is made it USES ATP NO SUGAR produced
The photosynthetic rate is reduced
![Page 13: Chapter 10 (Part 4) Alternative Pathways & Photosynthesis (Plant Evolution) Ms. Gaynor AP Biology.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142ca1550346d8488b5d94/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Why photorespirate? Ancient atmosphere = little O2
Current atmosphere = lots of O2
Rubisco has an affinity to bind to O2 and CO2
So…now it is inevitable that Rubisco will bind some O2 b/c there is so much O2 in air
![Page 14: Chapter 10 (Part 4) Alternative Pathways & Photosynthesis (Plant Evolution) Ms. Gaynor AP Biology.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142ca1550346d8488b5d94/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Alternative mechanisms of carbon fixation
Photosynthetic adaptations to MINIMIZE photorespiration and OPTIMIZE Calvin Cycle
2 Types of plants have adaptated:
C4 Plants CAM Plants
![Page 15: Chapter 10 (Part 4) Alternative Pathways & Photosynthesis (Plant Evolution) Ms. Gaynor AP Biology.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142ca1550346d8488b5d94/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
C4 PlantsUsually found in high daytime temps and intense sunlightEx: Corn, Sugarcane, crab grass
Have different leaf anatomy than C3 plantC3= uses mesophyll cellsC4= uses mesophyll AND bundle sheath cells
![Page 16: Chapter 10 (Part 4) Alternative Pathways & Photosynthesis (Plant Evolution) Ms. Gaynor AP Biology.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142ca1550346d8488b5d94/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
![Page 17: Chapter 10 (Part 4) Alternative Pathways & Photosynthesis (Plant Evolution) Ms. Gaynor AP Biology.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142ca1550346d8488b5d94/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
![Page 18: Chapter 10 (Part 4) Alternative Pathways & Photosynthesis (Plant Evolution) Ms. Gaynor AP Biology.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142ca1550346d8488b5d94/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
C4 Plants
C4 plants minimize the cost of photorespiration
Takes CO2 into MESOPHYLL CELL turns it to 3-C PEP molecule using PEP carboxylase (enzyme)
3-C PEP turned into 4-C intermediates (different acids)
ACIDS are then stored in plant for later moves into Bundle Sheath cell
![Page 19: Chapter 10 (Part 4) Alternative Pathways & Photosynthesis (Plant Evolution) Ms. Gaynor AP Biology.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142ca1550346d8488b5d94/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
ACIDS = 4-C oxaloacetic acid (OAA) then Malate (4C)
exported to bundle sheath cellsMalate CO2 +pyruvic acid
in “normal” Calvin cycle (C3 cycle) Pyruvic acid moves back to
mesophyll cell reforms 3-C PEP
Bundle sheath cells deep in leaf tissue (little O2) Rubisco can bind CO2 better
![Page 20: Chapter 10 (Part 4) Alternative Pathways & Photosynthesis (Plant Evolution) Ms. Gaynor AP Biology.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142ca1550346d8488b5d94/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

![Page 22: Chapter 10 (Part 4) Alternative Pathways & Photosynthesis (Plant Evolution) Ms. Gaynor AP Biology.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142ca1550346d8488b5d94/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
C4 Plants Characteristicswell adapted to (found in) habitats
with:high daytime temperaturesintense sunlightlow water conditions (drought)
Advantage = photorespiration not as much of a problemEx: crabgrass, corn (maize),
sugarcaneToday, C4 plants represent about
5% of Earth's plant biomass and 1% of its known plant species.
Despite this scarcity, they account for around 30% of terrestrial carbon fixation
![Page 23: Chapter 10 (Part 4) Alternative Pathways & Photosynthesis (Plant Evolution) Ms. Gaynor AP Biology.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142ca1550346d8488b5d94/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
CAM Plantsthink “AM” has to do with time of day
Type of C4 plantIn CAM plants, C3/C4 pathways NOT
separate in leaf anatomy but by TIMENO BUNDLE SHEATH CELLS…only
mesophyll cells like C3 plants
Open their stomata at night, incorporating CO2 into organic acids first (at night)
CAM = crassulacean acid metabolism
![Page 24: Chapter 10 (Part 4) Alternative Pathways & Photosynthesis (Plant Evolution) Ms. Gaynor AP Biology.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142ca1550346d8488b5d94/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
CAM Plants During night stomata openCO2 joins 3-C PEP 4-C
oxaloacetic acid (OAA) 4-C malate in central vacoule
In morning (light) stomata closedAccumulated malate leaves
vacoule broken down CO2 released Calvin cycle (C3) cycle is used to produce sugar using energy made in light rxns

CAM Plants CharacteristicsUsually found in high daytime tempscool night temps intense sunlightLow soil moisture
Advantage = photosynthesis can occur during day when stomata are closed Ex: pineapple and cacti
