Fractionation of carbon isotopes in oxygenic photosynthesis product 3-phosphoglycerate is depleted in C due to the kinetic isotope effect of the above reaction. The overall C fractionation for C3 photosynthesis ranges between -20 to -37‰. The wide range of variation in delta values expressed in C3 plants is modulated by the stomatal conductance, or the rate of CO entering, or water vapor exiting, the small pores in the epidermis of a leaf. The δC of C3 plants depends on the relationship between stomatal conductance and photosynthetic rate, which is a good proxy of water use efficiency in the leaf. C3 plants with high water-use efficiency tend to
What You Need (song) What You Need (song) "What You Need" is a song recorded by the Australian band INXS. It is the leadoff track from their 1985 album, "Listen Like Thieves". "What You Need" was the first single off the album in Australia and New Zealand, while it was in USA and Europe the second single after "This Time" and was the band's first American Top Ten hit, peaking at #5 on the "Billboard" Hot 100 singles chart. After the album "Listen Like Thieves" was recorded and ready to be given to the record label for inspection, producer Chris Thomas was worried that
