AB  - This study identifies Salsola laricifolia as a C3-C4 intermediate in tribe 
      Salsoleae s.l., Chenopodiaceae, and compares S. laricifolia with the previously 
      described C3-C4 intermediates in Salsoleae. Photosynthetic pathway 
      characteristics were studied in four species of this tribe including S. 
      laricifolia, C3 Sympegma regelii, C3-C4 S. arbusculiformis, and C4 S. arbuscula, 
      using the approaches of leaf anatomy and ultrastructure, activities of ribulose 
      1-5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) and PEP carboxylase (PEPC), CO2 
      compensation point, and immunolocalization of Rubisco, PEPC, and the P-subunit of 
      glycine decarboxylase (GDC). Salsola laricifolia has intermediate features, with 
      near continuous and distinctive Kranz-like cells (KLCs) compared with the 
      C3-Sympegmoid anatomical type and the C3-C4 intermediate S. arbusculiformis, a 
      relatively low CO2 compensation point (30.4 mumol mol(-1)) and mesophyll (M)-to 
      KLC tissue ratio, mitochondria in KLCs primarily occurring along the centripetal 
      wall, and specific localization of P-protein GDC in the KLCs. The C3-type isotope 
      value (-22.4  per thousand), the absence of the clear labeling for PEPC in M cells, and the 
      low activity of the PEPC enzyme (61.5 mumol mg(-1 )chlorophyll(-1) h(-1)) support 
      the identification of S. laricifolia as a type I C3-C4 intermediate. Although 
      these C3-C4 intermediate species have different structural features, one with 
      discontinuous KL cells and the other with continuous, they have similar 
      characteristics in physiology and biochemistry.
