Food crops face rising temperatures: An overview of responses, adaptive mechanisms, and approaches to improve heat tolerance (2016, background): “However, Crafts-Brandner and Salvucci (2002) reported that photosynthesis thrives at 33–38°C and is inhibited at 45°C (Smith, 1996).”
Physiological N response of field-grown maize hybrids (Zea mays L.) with divergent yield potential and grain protein concentration (2009, methodology): “PEP carboxylase was assayed spectrophotometrically at 30°C as described by Crafts-Brandner and Salvucci (2002).”
Inhibition of photosynthesis by heat stress: the activation state of Rubisco as a limiting factor in photosynthesis. (2004, background): “This conclusion is supported by direct measurements of metabolite levels (Kobza and Edwards 1987, Law and Crafts-Brandner 1999) and 14C labelling patterns (Weis 1981a), which show that RuBP actually increases in concentration and PGA decreases when net photosynthesis is inhibited by moderate heat st”
Is photoinhibition of zooxanthellae photosynthesis the primary cause of thermal bleaching in corals? (2005, background): “…in Rubisco activation induced by moderate heat stress correlates with reduced rates of photosynthesis and is accompanied by increased levels of RuBP (Law & Crafts-Brandner, 1999; Crafts-Brandner & Law, 2000; Sharkey et al., 2001; Crafts-Brandner & Salvucci, 2002; Salvucci & Crafts-Brandner, 2004a).”
Cell Wall Metabolism in Response to Abiotic Stress (2015, background): “morpho-anatomical, physiological and biochemical changes in plants, particularly observed in Arabidopsis, maize and wheat [101–104].”
Heat Stress during Late Vegetative Growth of Maize: Effects on Phenology and Assessment of Optimum Temperature (2010, background): “The state of the art is less developed for acquired thermotolerance, with some evidences for maize photosynthesis (Crafts-Brandner and Salvucci, 2002) but only a peripheral analysis for development (Ellis et al.”
Growth at moderately elevated temperature alters the physiological response of the photosynthetic apparatus to heat stress in pea (Pisum sativum L.) leaves (2005, background): “On the other hand, the fact that the reduction of the Rubisco activation state induced by moderate heat stress usually correlates with increased levels of RuBP and decreased levels of 3-phosphoglycerate (Kobza & Edwards 1987; Law & Crafts-Brandner 1999; Crafts-Brandner & Law 2000; Sharkey et al. 200”
The Influence of Climate Change on Global Crop Productivity1 (2012, background): “Crops with a C4 photosynthetic pathway (e.g. maize and sugarcane [Saccharum officinarum]) have higher optimum T for photosynthesis than C3 crops (e.g. rice and wheat), but even C4 crops see declines in photosynthesis at high T (Crafts-Brandner and Salvucci, 2002).”
Brassinosteroids Alleviate Heat-Induced Inhibition of Photosynthesis by Increasing Carboxylation Efficiency and Enhancing Antioxidant Systems in Lycopersicon esculentum (2008, background): “Recently, inhibition of ribulose-1,5-carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) activation has also been identified as one of the most heat-sensitive components of the photosynthetic apparatus (Law and Crafts-Brandner 1999; Crafts-Brandner and Salvucci 2000, 2002; Salvucci and Crafts-Brandner 2004).”
Crop Production under Drought and Heat Stress: Plant Responses and Management Options (2017, background): “The concentration of the Rubisco enzyme in leaves depends upon the rate at which it is synthesized and degraded.”
Effect of heat stress on the photosynthetic apparatus in maize (Zea mays L.) grown at control or high temperature (2004, background): “The latter was associated with the appearance of a new activase polypeptide (Crafts-Brandner and Salvucci, 2002).”
