Primary source abstract:"Carboxylase and oxygenase activities of ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase purified from wheat were measured over the temperature range 5 to 35 degrees C either at constant O(2) and CO(2) concentrations or where the O(2) and CO(2) simulated the concentrations in water equilibrated at each temperature with the same gaseous phase." |

p.322 left column bottom paragraph:"In air-equilibrated buffers, the oxygenation to carboxylation ratio increases between 15 °C and 35 °C from 0.16 to 0.35 (primary source). The reciprocal of these values (i.e., 1/0.16 and 1/0.35) gives the ratio of carboxylation to oxygenation. Accordingly, in well-watered plants, the ratio of carboxylation to oxygenation would be nearly 6.2:1 at 15 °C, 4.5:1 at 25 °C and 2.8:1 at 35 °C." |
