Figure 2   Calculation of the electron partitioning through the alternative oxidase(τa) using the oxygen isotope fractionation technique. This is an example of the lines expected in different situations where the participation of the alternative pathway (τa) would be approximately 90%, 60% and 30%. This could be the case for the floral receptacle of Nelumbo nucifera (Watling et al., 2006), cotyledons and leaves of Glycine max (Ribas-Carbo et al., 2005), respectively
