这篇论文是在与颁发国际生物学奖相结合的研讨会上发表的演讲的一个非常简短的版本。我为引用的少而道歉。由于这个场合和听众广泛的兴趣,我选择以一般的方式来处理c4光合作用的一些方面。最近的一篇综述(Hatch 1987)更详细地介绍了光合作用的生物化学、生理学和各种相关方面的现状。在这里,我将简要地考虑发现过程的一些方面以及随后的一些最重要的发展。然后,我将考虑c4选项在细胞级别上的功能、它提供的优势以及它进化的原因。
This paper is a much abbreviated version of a lecture presented at a symposium held in conjunction with the awarding of the International Prize for Biology. I apologise for the sparse use of references. Because of the occasion and the wide range of interests of the audience I chose to treat a number of aspects of C4photosynthesis in a general way. A more detailed account of the current status of the biochemistry, physiology, and various related aspects of C4photosynthesis has been presented in a recent review (Hatch 1987). Here, I will briefly consider some aspects of the discovery of the process and some of the most significant developments that followed. I will then consider the function of the C4option at the cellular level, the advantages it offers, and why it evolved.
