Far-Red Chlorophyll Fluorescence Radiance Tracks Photosynthetic Carbon Assimilation Efficiency of Dark Reactions
Solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) observations from space have shown close relationships with terrestrial photosynthesis rates. SIF originates from the light reactions of photosynthesis, whereas carbon fixation takes place during the dark reactions of photosynthesis. Questions remain rega...

Solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) observations from space have shown close relationships with terrestrial photosynthesis rates. SIF originates from the light reactions of photosynthesis, whereas carbon fixation takes place during the dark reactions of photosynthesis. Questions remain regarding whether SIF is able to track changes in the efficiency of the dark reactions in photosynthesis. Using concurrent measurements of leaf-scale gas exchange, pulse amplitude-modulated (PAM) fluorescence, and fluorescence spectral radiances, we found that both far-red fluorescence radiances and PAM fluorescence yields responded rapidly to changes in photosynthetic carbon assimilation due to changes in environmental factors or induced stomatal closure under constant light conditions. Uncertainties in outgoing and incoming irradiance mismatch for SIF measurements may very likely obscure the contributions of the dark reactions, thereby causing the inconsistent findings previously reported, which were no change in far-red SIF and PAM fluorescence yields after clear reductions in the photosynthetic carbon assimilation efficiency of dark reactions. Our results confirm that high-quality SIF measurements have the potential to provide insights into the dark reactions of photosynthesis. This study is particularly relevant for better interpreting satellite SIF observations that are obtained under roughly constant overpass times and relatively stable light intensities. |
