Characterization of Water Deficit Effects on Chloroplast                Photosynthetic Potential:  This research continues the                          characterization of how water deficits in leaves inhibit                        chloroplast photosynthetic potential and proposes to identify                   endogenous cellular mechanisms that modulate the severity of                    this inhibition.  The chloroplast response in vitro to                          dehydrating external osmotic potentials and in situ to leaf                     water deficits will be examined.                                                                                                                                The information obtained from this research should increase our                 understanding of the factors involved in non-stomatal-mediated                  water deficit effects on photosynthesis.  Non-stomatal effects                  appear to be the major limiting effects on crop growth under-                   water stress conditions.
