Abstract: Gas exchange,chlorophyll fluorescence,the Mehler reaction,and activities of nitrate reductase,glutamine synthetase,and glutamate synthase were measured after addition of the photorespiration inhibitor NaHSO3 in ginger leaves. According to our results,after 1 day of NaHSO3 treatment,the net photosynthetic rate increased by 19% compared with the control. The rate subsequently decreased and was reduced by 17% compared with the control on day 6. Meanwhile,stomatal conductance and the intercellular CO2 concentration decreased. NaHSO3 treatment significantly decreased the Fv/FmФPSIIqP,and activities of nitrate reductase,glutamine synthetase and glutamate synthase,and increased NPQ,the Mehler reaction,and H2O2 concentration. These results show that carbon and nitrogen metabolism is reduced when NaHSO3 inhibits photorespiration in ginger leaves.

Key words: ginger, photorespiration, light energy allocation, nitrogen metabolism
