Chloroplasts are the location of Rubisco and the endpoint of CO2 diffusion, and they play a vital important role in photosynthesis. However, the effects of chloroplast development on photosynthesis are poorly explored. In the present study, rice seedlings (Oryza sativa L., cv. 'Shanyou 63', and 'Yangdao 6') were grown hydroponically with three different N levels, morphological characteristics, photosynthetic variables and chloroplast size were measured. In Shanyou 63, a negative relationship between chloroplast size and PNUE was observed across three different N levels. Here, plants with larger chloroplasts had a decreased ratio of mesophyll conductance (gm) to Rubisco content (gm/Rubisco) and a lower Rubisco specific activity. In Yangdao 6, there was no change in chloroplast size and no decline in PNUE or gm/Rubisco ratio under high N supply. It is suggested that large chloroplasts under high N supply is correlated with the decreased Rubisco specific activity and PNUE.","is_dataset_classified":null,"base_score":4.867534450455582,"endowment":4.867534450455582,"datacite_reuse_total":0,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"views":0,"has_version_chain":false,"is_dataset":false,"is_oa":false,"pmid":"23620801","pmcid":"PMC3631174","openalex_id":"https://openalex.org/W2067026359","authors":[],"funders":[],"total_grants":0,"fwci":2.7956,"citation_percentile":0.90355297,"influential_citations":0,"citation_trend":[{"year":2013,"count":1},{"year":2014,"count":1},{"year":2015,"count":6},{"year":2016,"count":6},{"year":2017,"count":7},{"year":2018,"count":11},{"year":2019,"count":15},{"year":2020,"count":31},{"year":2021,"count":11},{"year":2022,"count":15},{"year":2023,"count":11},{"year":2024,"count":8},{"year":2025,"count":4},{"year":2026,"count":2}],"oa_status":"gold","license":"cc-by","oa_locations":[{"url":"https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article/file?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0062036&type=printable","host_type":"journal"},{"url":"https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article/file?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0062036&type=printable","host_type":"publisher"},{"url":"http://dx.plos.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0062036","host_type":"publisher"},{"url":"https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0062036","host_type":"journal"},{"url":"https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23620801","host_type":"repository"},{"url":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/3631174","host_type":"repository"},{"url":"http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/summary?doi=10.1.1.769.5673","host_type":""},{"url":"https://doaj.org/article/44f264eee32f44ad9770e6ced3379886","host_type":"repository"},{"url":"https://europepmc.org/articles/PMC3631174","host_type":"Europe_PMC"},{"url":"https://europepmc.org/articles/PMC3631174?pdf=render","host_type":"Europe_PMC"}],"fields_of_study":["Plant Water Relations and Carbon Dynamics","Plant responses to elevated CO2","Plant nutrient uptake and metabolism","Carbon Dioxide","Chloroplasts","Nitrogen","Organelle Size","Oryza","Photosynthesis","Plant Leaves","Ribulose-Bisphosphate Carboxylase","Seedlings"],"mesh_terms":["Carbon Dioxide","Chloroplasts","Nitrogen","Photosynthesis","Ribulose-Bisphosphate Carboxylase","Oryza","Plant Leaves","Seedlings","Organelle Size"],"keywords":["RuBisCO","Chloroplast","Photosynthesis","Oryza sativa","Biology","Photosynthetic efficiency","Botany","Biochemistry"],"sdg_mappings":[{"sdg_number":0,"sdg_label":"Clean water and sanitation"}],"linked_datasets":[],"clinical_trials":[],"software_tools":[],"database_accessions":[],"source":"live","citation_network_status":"fetched"},"created_at":"2026-08-17T17:30:33.870558Z","pmid":null,"pmcid":null,"fwci":null,"citation_percentile":null,"influential_citations":0,"oa_status":null,"license":null,"views":0,"total_file_size_bytes":0,"version_count":0,"fair_f":null,"fair_a":null,"fair_i":null,"fair_r":null,"fair_zscore":null,"fair_rationale":null,"fair_model":null,"fair_agent_version":null,"fair_fulltext_source":null,"fair_has_llm":null,"fair_computed_at":null,"clinical_trials":[],"software_tools":[],"db_accessions":[],"linked_datasets":[],"topics":[]}
