• Improving photosynthetic efficiency for greater yield. (2010, background): “Unfortunately, although amino acid substitutions to different areas of LSU have been attempted with guidance from the holoenzyme crystal structure, no more efficient enzymes have been produced so far; in fact, only less effecient enzymes have been produced (5, 75, 97, 117).”
• Rubisco specificity factor tends to be larger in plant species from drier habitats and in species with persistent leaves (2005, background): “This is important because introducing into higher terrestrial plants, genes for Rubisco from distantly related cyanobacterial and algal species have thus far failed to yield a fully functional enzyme, whereas the introduction of smaller changes have resulted in catalytically competent enzyme ( Sprei”
• Heat stress in grain legumes during reproductive and grain-filling phases (2017, background): “Eight active sides of the RuBisCO holoenzyme function independently (Spreitzer and Salvucci 2002) and are catalytically more active and competent.”
• Heat Stress in Wheat during Reproductive and Grain-Filling Phases (2011, background): “This RCA-mediated step is vital as it frees the Rubisco active site for carboxylation (Salvucci and Ogren, 1996; Spreitzer and Salvucci, 2002).”
• Prospects for crop production under drought: research priorities and future directions (2005, background): “An alternative strategy to improve water-use efficiency would be to generate C3 crop plants expressing an improved form of Rubisco, with high specificity factor and catalytic rate (Spreitzer & Salvucci, 2002; Parry et al., 2003).”
• Mechanisms underlying plant resilience to water deficits: prospects for water-saving agriculture. (2004, background): “There is also scope for over-expressing Rubisco activase, which seems to be more susceptible to extreme environments, namely high temperatures (Feller et al., 1998; Rokka et al., 2001).”
• What have we learned from 15 years of free-air CO2 enrichment (FACE)? A meta-analytic review of the responses of photosynthesis, canopy properties and plant production to rising CO2. (2004, background): “Assuming Rubisco to account for 25% of leaf N (Spreitzer & Salvucci, 2002), the 20% decrease in Rubisco could account for all of the 5% decrease in leaf N.”
• Gas exchange measurements, what can they tell us about the underlying limitations to photosynthesis? Procedures and sources of error. (2003, methodology): “Two methods for estimating gm have been used (Loreto et al., 1992; Bernacchi et al., 2002).”
• Recent Advances in Photosynthesis Under Drought and Salinity (2011, background): “Attempts to manipulate Rubisco have not been successful so far and resulted in even a less efficient enzyme (Parry et al., 2003; Spreitzer and Salvucci, 2002).”
