Different CO2 fixations
Plants C-3: Stomata opened during daylight for CO2 ,
fixation. This fact produces a continue water loss by
transpiration.
Plants C-4: Stomata opened during daylight . They have got
CO2 pump intermediaries in cells that allow stomata closing
and continue photosynthesis .
Plants CAM: Stomata opened during night . Reduction of
water loss by transpiration. They have got CO2 pump
intermediaries as pool.

OBJECTIVE
In this scientific work the rate of CO2
fixation has been determined in the more
important crops in Region of Murcia.
•Crops whose irrigation surface › 1000 Ha
•Rate of CO2 fixation has been calculated
based in:
- Annual biomass.
- Carbon content in tissues
• Introduction
• Methodology applied
• Results
• Conclusions

CO2 fixation
Production of annual biomass:
Plant
Three
Shoot (fruit)
Root
Total carbon was analysed from annual biomas
Horticultural plants
Tomato, pepper, watermelon, melon, lettuce and broccoli
•Three plants of each specie was collected
at the end of their growing cycle.
•Fruits, leaves, stems and roots were
separated and weighed to determine their
fresh weight.
•They were introduced in a hot air oven at
70 º C until constant weight to determine
dry weight.
•They were ground in a laboratory mill,
•Carbon was measured.
Fruit trees
Apricot, plum, peach, nectarine and table grape
•Three trees of each species were collected after fruit
harvesting
•Leaves, annual stems and annual roots were separated
and weighted to determine their fresh weight per year.
•The trunk and on annuals branches were weighed and
divided by n-years to determine their annual fresh
weight.
•Fruit samples were taken separately.
•A representative sample were introduced in a hot air
oven at 70 º C until constant weight to determine dry
weight.
•They were ground in a laboratory mill..
•Carbon was measured.
Citrus trees
lemon, orange and mandarin
•Three trees of each species were uprooted
•Leaf, non-wood branch and root were separated and
weighted to determine their fresh weight. For
calculating of total carbon captured per tree and per
year, it was found that leaf biomass is renewed every
3 years.
•The trunk and on annuals branches were weighed and
divided by n-years to determine their annual fresh
weight.
•Fruit samples were taken.
•A representative sample were introduced in a hot air
oven at 70 º C until constant weight to determine dry
weight.
•They were ground in a laboratory mill.
•Carbon was measured.
Hot air oven at 70oC
Carbon analyzer
Total carbon content was measured in subsamples (about 2-3 mg PS) of leaves, stems,
fruits and roots with an N-C analyzer.
