摘要
To identify processes that might account for differences in growth rates of rhodophytes under constant and dynamic light supply, we examined nonequilibrium gas exchange by measuring time courses of photoinduction, loss of photoinduction, and respiration rates immediately after the light-dark transition. Using the rhodophyte species Palmaria palmata (Huds.) Lamour and Lomentaria articulata (Huds.) Lyngb., we compared the effects of growth-saturating constant photon flux density (PFD) (95 mu mol photons . m(-2). s(-1)) to those of a dynamic light supply modeled on canopy movements in the intertidal zone (25 mu mol photons . m(-2). s(-1) background PFD plus light flecks of 350 mu mol photons . m(-2). s(-1), 0.1 Hz). The time required for P. palmata and L. articulata to be fully photoinduced was not affected by the dynamics of light supply. L. articulata required only 6 min of illumination with either fluctuating or constant light to be completely induced compared to 20 min for P. palmata. The latter species also lost photoinduction more rapidly than did L. articulata in the dark. There was no significant decline in photoinduction state for either species at the background PFD. The time courses of respiration after illumination with constant and fluctuating light were significantly different for P. palmata but not for L. articulata when the total photon dose was equal. In general, gas exchange of P. palmata appeared to be particularly sensitive to the temporal distribution of light supply whereas that of L. articulata was sensitive to the amplitude of variations, being photoinhibited at high PFD. These results are discussed in terms of the different mechanisms of inorganic carbon acquisition in the two species.
