“…RuBP and PEP carboxylase activities and synthesis (Wareing et al, 1968), phosphorylase activity (Thorne, 1979), leaf chlorophyll (Kriedemann et al, 1976), inorganic phosphate (Thorne and Koller, 1974), leaf sugars (Christy and Swanson, 1976), assimilate export (Hartt et al, 1963;Swanson et al, 1976;Troughton, 1976;Chatterton and Silvius, 1979), and amylolytic activity (Haapala, 1969) have all been observed to increase following the reduction of the source. Mesophyll resistance (Thorne and Koller, 1974;Nafziger and Koller, 1976) and leaf starch (Moorby and Milthorpe, 1975) have been shown to decrease.…”
