? 2022 Elsevier B.V.Enhanced photosynthesis and biomass have been achieved in C3 plants by over-expressing NADP dependent malate dehydrogenase (SmNADP-mdh), a C4 pathway gene from Suaeda monoica. Over-expression of the SmNADP-mdh improved seed germination, seedling growth and accumulation of pigments, sugar, starch and C H N S elements in transgenic tobacco under in vitro conditions. Transgenic tobacco exhibited higher NADP-MDH activity, membrane stability index, photosynthesis efficiency, improved stomatal conductance, carboxylation efficiency, photosystem II (PSII) operating efficiency, electron transfer rate, photochemical quenching and better accumulation of sugar and starch at elevated (1200 ppm) CO2 (eCO2). Chlorophyll a fluorescence analysis showed improved pool size, electron transfer, water-splitting activity, photosynthetic performance indexes and efficient working of PSII at eCO2 in transgenic tobacco over-expressing SmNADP-mdh. The higher expression of antioxidant defence genes indicated better scavenging and lesser accumulation of ROS at eCO2. Results suggest the potential of a single-cell C4 halophytic NADP-mdh gene in the development of smart agriculture to improve the photosynthetic efficiency and biomass yield in C3 plants.
