Clusia hilariana Schltdl. is described in literature as an obligate Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) species. In the present study we assessed the effect of irradiance with low light (LL, 200μmolm(-2)s(-1)) and high light (HL, 650-740μmolm(-2)s(-1)), on the interdependency of citrate and malate
Gas exchange patterns and nocturnal acid accumulation were examined in four species of Clusia under simulated field conditions in the laboratory. Clusia alata and C. major had midday stomatal closure, substantial net CO2 exchange ([Formula: see text]) during the night, and the highest water use
In the Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) plants Clusia alata Triana and Planch., decarboxylation of citrate during phase III of CAM took place later than malate decarboxylation. The interdependence of these two CO(2) and NADPH sources is discussed. High light accelerated malate decarboxylation
Clusia nemorosa has been widely used in folk medicine to treat various ailments, including headaches and inflammation. Investigation of the fruits of Clusia nemorosa (Clusiaceae) led to the isolation and characterization of a new phloroglucinol derivative, named 6S,8S,28S-nemorosic acid (1),
Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) plants are dependent on the organic acids that accumulate overnight in the vacuoles as a source of CO(2) during the daylight deacidification period, when stomata are closed and high irradiances generally prevail. We performed an integrative analysis of diurnal
Clusia minor L., a C3-CAM intermediate, and Clusia multiflora H. B. K., a C3 obligate, present two physiotypes of a similar morphotype occurring sympatrically in the field. Both species, exposed 2 days to high light, show similar responses to this kind of stress: (i) the level of xanthophyll
