| Abstract | We studied the effect of NaCl salinity on the development of cellular photosynthesis using a green, photomixotrophic, cell-suspension culture of Alternanthera philoxeroides (Mart.) Griseb. For these cells, increasing the concentration of sucrose in the media produces a rapid drop in net photosynthetic rate, which recovers as sucrose is depleted from the media. This predictable recovery provides a simple system to examine cellular photosynthetic development. Cells, unadapted to high salinity, were transferred to nutrient media with 30 mM sucrose (Control) or nutrient media with 30 mM sucrose and 100 mM NaCl (Salt). A dramatic increase in the dark respiration rate of Control and Salt cells during the first 6 d of the experiment produced net oxygen consumption in the light. The high dark respiration rates during this period were accompanied by a decline in total Chl and the amounts of two photosynthetic proteins, the light harvesting Chl a/b binding protein of photosystem II (LHCP) and the small subunit of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (rubisco SSU). The dark respiration rate of Salt cells was greater than that of Control cells on days 4–8. After day 4, dark respiration rates decreased and net photosynthesis increased to stable values in both treatments at day 11 after media sucrose concentration reached a minimum. As dark respiration rates decreased and net photosynthetic rates increased, total Chl and the amounts of LHCP and rubisco SSU increased in both Control and Salt cells. The slower development of photosynthetic capacity in salt cells was correlated with a fresh weight that was 20% lower than that of control cells at the end of the experiment. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
