The Functional Organization and Control of Plant Respiration (2006, background): “…by photosynthetic terrestrial plants is released back into the atmosphere by respiring plants, representing about 50 percent of the annual input of CO2 from terrestrial ecosystems (Amthor, 1997, 2000; Atkin and Tjoelker, 2003; Gifford, 2003; Gonzalez-Meler et al., 2004; Atkin et al., 2005).”
High thermal acclimation potential of both photosynthesis and respiration in two lowland Plantago species in contrast to an alpine congeneric (2006, background): “Leaf respiration measured in darkness (Rdark) also often acclimates to long-term changes in growth temperature, gradually increasing after a shift to a lower temperature and decreasing after some time at a higher growth temperature (Atkin & Tjoelker, 2003; Atkin et al., 2005).”
global patterns of the responses of leaf-level photosynthesis and respiration in terrestrial plants to experimental warming (2013, background): “As thermal sensitive processes, both plant photosynthesis and respiration are expected to increase initially with temperate elevation (Atkin and Tjoelker 2003).”
Acclimation to temperature and temperature sensitivity of metabolism by ectomycorrhizal fungi (2008, background): “Differences in substrate availability can affect an organism’s ability to acclimate to temperature and its temperature sensitivity (Atkin & Tjoelker, 2003; Davidson & Janssens, 2006).”
Soil respiration fluxes in relation to photosynthetic activity in broad-leaf and needle-leaf forest stands (2008, background): “But even the response to these factors may vary depending on the concentration of substrates involved in enzymatic reactions (Davidson et al., 2006) or the resistance and acclimation of soil organisms to changes in their environment (Atkin and Tjoelker, 2003).”
Coupling of respiration, nitrogen, and sugars underlies convergent temperature acclimation in Pinus banksiana across wide‐ranging sites and populations (2008, background): “Consequently, respiration rates do not differ nearly as much as they otherwise would across thermal environments, although complete homeostasis across temperatures is uncommon (Atkin & Tjoelker, 2003).”
Foliar respiration acclimation to temperature and temperature variable Q10 alter ecosystem carbon balance (2005, background): “…term (seconds to minutes) dark respiration response to temperature departs from a simple exponential function (Wager 1941, Tjoelker et al., 2001) and (2) the fact that acclimation to temperature may shift the entire temperature response function (regardless of its shape) (Atkin & Tjoelker, 2003).”
Acclimation of leaf respiration to temperature is rapid and related to specific leaf area, soluble sugars and leaf nitrogen across three temperate deciduous tree species (2005, neutral): “Furthermore, the substrate required to saturate cellular respiration increases with temperature ( Atkin & Tjoelker 2003 ).”
Adaptation of soil microbial communities to temperature: comparison of fungi and bacteria in a laboratory experiment (2009, background): “Thermal acclimation is a common phenomenon in plant ecophysiology, where a reduction in respiration, together with an improvement in the efficiency of carbon use, is seen after exposure to a higher temperature over a prolonged period of time (Atkin & Tjoelker, 2003).”
On the variability of respiration in terrestrial ecosystems: moving beyond Q10 (2006, background): “Low temperatures can limit the capacity of both soluble and membrane-bound enzymes, although the transition from a gel-like state to a fluid state in plant membranes may be particularly important (Atkin & Tjoelker, 2003).”
The dependence of respiration on photosynthetic substrate supply and temperature: integrating leaf, soil and ecosystem measurements (2006, background): “However, plant respiration often acclimates to changing temperature regimes ( Atkin & Tjoelker, 2003; Atkin et al., 2005), and this response may be mediated passively, through changes in substrate supply, or actively, SUBSTRA T E C ONTROL O F R ESPIRA T ION 1955”
