Dynamics of CO2 evolution at low pressure was studied in barley, maize, pea, wheat and pine seedlings using the gas exchange system with laser photoacoustic spectrometer. The CO2 evolution from plant surfaces to environment increased with decreasing air pressure. Simultaneously the changes in activities of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase, alcohol-dehydrogenase, isocitrate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase in pea and maize leaves were observed. The response depended on plant species used as well as on air pressure and period of its action
