Photorespiration reduces the efficiency of photosynthesis by diverting energy and carbon away from the production of glucose.

Photorespiration is a wasteful pathway that competes with the Calvin cycle. It begins when rubisco acts on oxygen instead of carbon dioxide.

This process lowers the efficiency of photosynthesis, potentially lowering photosynthetic output by 25% in C3 plants. Photorespiration involves a complex ...

Photorespiration reduces the efficiency of carbon fixation during photosynthesis, with a loss of up to 50% of the carbon fixed [3].

Photorespiration reduces the efficiency of photosynthesis for a couple of reasons. First, oxygen is added to carbon. In other words, the carbon is oxidized.

Photorespiration can significantly impact the efficiency of photosynthesis, as it competes with the normal carbon fixation process. Process of photorespiration

Photorespiration, or C2 photosynthesis, is generally considered a futile cycle that potentially decreases photosynthetic carbon fixation by more than 25%.

In the light, CO2 released during photorespiration reduces the observed photosynthetic rate, and at low carbon dioxide concentrations are the cause of the CCP ...

5 окт. 2022 г. · Photorespiration is essential for C3 (and C4) plant growth in air containing current CO2 concentrations (normal air). However, this high fiux ...
