Sugar Beets (Beta vulgaris L. cv F58-554H1) were cultured hydroponically in growth chambers. Leaf orthophosphate (Pi) levels were varied nutritionally. The effect of decreased leaf phosphate (low-P) status was determined on the diurnal changes in the pool sizes of leaf ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP), 3-phosphoglycerate (PGA), triose phosphate, fructose 1,6-bisphosphate, fructose-6-phosphate, glucose-6-phosphate, adenylates, nicotinamide nucleotides, and Pi. Except for triose phosphate, low-P treatment caused a marked reduction in the levels of leaf sugar phosphates (on a leaf area basis) throughout the diurnal cycle. Low-P treatment decreased the average leaf RuBP levels by 60 to 69% of control values during the light period. Low-P increased NADPH levels and NADPH/NADP(+) ratio but decreased ATP; the ATP/ADP ratio was unaffected. Low P treatment caused a marked reduction in RuBP regeneration (RuBP levels were half the RuBP carboxylase binding site concentration) but did not depress PGA reduction to triose phosphate. These results indicate that photosynthesis in low-P leaves was limited by RuBP regeneration and that RuBP formation in low-P leaves was not limited by the supply of ATP and NADPH. We suggest that RuBP regeneration was limited by the supply of fixed carbon, an increased proportion of which was diverted to starch synthesis.
