    Notes: Abstract Endogenous free-running regular circadian oscillations of net CO2 exchange in the crassulacean-acidmetabolism (CAM) plant Kalanchoë daigremontiana Hamet et Perrier de la Bâthie under constant external conditions in continuous light have been shown to change to irregular non-predictable (chaotic) time behaviour as irradiance or temperature are raised above a critical level. A model of CAM has been constructed with pools of major metabolites of varying concentrations, flows of metabolites leading to exchange between pools, metabolite transformations determined by chemical reactions, and feedback regulations. The model is described by a system of coupled non-linear differential equations. It shows stable rhythmicity in normal dark-light cycles and in continuous light and, like the K. daigremontiana leaves in the experiments, a change to chaos as irradiance is increased. The maintenance of endogenous oscillations in the model is brought about by a hysteresis switch or beat oscillator between two stable oscillation modes. In CAM these stable modes are vacuolar malate accumulation and remobilization. The model shows that the physical nature of the beat oscillator in the leaves can be explained by the balance between active and passive transport at the tonoplast.

    Notes: Abstract Leaves of Kalanchoë daigremontiana Hamet et Perr. at a photon flux density (PFD) above 220 μmol·m−2s−1 (400–700 nm) or at leaf temperatures above 27.0 °C showed a rapid loss of rhythmicity, and a more or less pronounced damping-out of the endogenous circadian rhythm of CO2 exchange under continuous illumination. This rhythm was reinitiated after reduction of the PFD by 90–120 μmol·m−2·s−1 or reduction of leaf temperature by 3.5–11.0 °C under otherwise unchanged external conditions. The reduction in the magnitude of the external control parameter of the Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) rhythm (i.e. PFD or leaf temperature) set the phase of the new rhythm. The maxima of CO2 uptake occurred about 5, 28, 51, 75 h after the reduction. Simulations with a CAM model under comparable conditions showed a similar behaviour. The influence of temperature on the endogenous CAM rhythm observed in K. daigremontiana in vivo could be simulated by incorporating into the model temperature-dependent switch modes for passive efflux of malate from the vacuole to the cytoplasm. Thus, the model indicates that tonoplast function plays an important role in regulation of the endogenous CAM rhythm in K. daigremontiana.
