Chlorophyll fluorescence and
photoinhibition in a tropical rainforest understory plant.
Interaction of salt stress and
photoinhibition on photosynthesis in barley and sorghum.
It has been suggested that anthocyanin screens senescing foliage from high levels of incident light (Hoch et al., 2001), thereby reducing the potential for
photoinhibition. This creates an environment for the efficient resorption of foliar nutrients during a period of restricted photoprotective capacity.
The sudden increase in solar radiation may also cause
photoinhibition of shade-grown seedlings.
Reduction in maximal quantum of yield of PSII (Fv/Fm) is an indicator of the degree of
photoinhibition (Kreslavski et al.
Protein synthesis is the primary target of reactive oxygen species in the
photoinhibition of photosystem II.
Therefore, chlorophyll fluorescence, especially for the PSII system, can be a very powerful tool to study photosynthetic performance, the degree of water stress or
photoinhibition, and photoprotective mechanisms [17-19].
Kunert (1995).Overexpression of glutathione reductase but not glutathione synthetase leads to increases in antioxidant capacity and resistance to
photoinhibition in poplar trees.
Estimation of the effect of
photoinhibition on the carbon gain in leaves of a willow canopy.
UVR-induced
photoinhibition is known to change seasonally depending on the composition of the natural assemblages, as seen in Patagonian marine coastal waters where the bloom (diatom-dominated) was relatively more sensitive that the pre- and post bloom communities (flagellate-dominated community) (Villafane et al., 2004a).
