THE EFFECTS OF SOME INHIBITORS ON THE RATES OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS AND RESPIRATION BY CHLORELLA

The effects of several inhibitors on the rates of photosynthesis and of respiration by Chlorella pyrenoidosa have been studied. The inhibitors used in this study include potassium cyanide, hydroxylamine hydrogen chloride, dinitrophenol,and sodium azide. Each inhibitor seems to have its own character...

description The effects of several inhibitors on the rates of photosynthesis and of respiration by Chlorella pyrenoidosa have been studied. The inhibitors used in this study include potassium cyanide, hydroxylamine hydrogen chloride, dinitrophenol,and sodium azide. Each inhibitor seems to have its own characteristic action in photosynthesis and in respiration. With the exception of hydroxylamine, all the inhibitors show a stimulation of respiration at low concentrations of the inhibitors. Only dinitrophenol inhibits respiration to a marked extent. Potassium cyanide, hydroxylamine, and dinitrophenol are about equally effective in inhibiting photosynthesis, but sodium azide is nearly ten times as effective.
