Inhibition of the activity of photosystem II (PSII) under strong light is referred to as
photoinhibition. This phenomenon is due to an imbalance between the rate of photodamage …

Environmental stress enhances the extent of photoinhibition, a process that is determined by
the balance between the rate of photodamage to photosystem II (PSII) and the rate of its …

Abstract Photodamage of Photosystem II (PSII) has been considered as an unavoidable and
harmful reaction that decreases plant productivity. PSII, however, has an efficient and …

Abstract Photosystem I (PS I) photoinhibition suppresses plant photosynthesis and growth.
However, the mechanism underlying PS I photoinhibition has not been fully clarified. In this …

Light induced damage of the photosynthetic apparatus is an important and highly complex
phenomenon, which affects primarily the Photosystem II complex. Here the author …

Orchidaceae is the 3rd largest family of angiosperms, an evolved young branch of
monocotyledons. This family contains a number of economically-important horticulture and …

Light drives photosynthesis, but at the same time, light also damages the photosynthesis
machinery. The damaging reaction is termed photoinhibition, and its target is Photosystem II …

Abstract Background and Aims The genus Allium L., one of the largest monocotyledonous
genera and one that includes many economically important crops with nutritional and …

Background Alkaline/neutral invertase (A/N-INV), an enzyme that hydrolyzes sucrose
irreversibly into glucose and fructose, is essential for normal plant growth, development, and …

The unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii possesses a [FeFe]-hydrogenase
HydA1 (EC 1.12. 7.2), which is coupled to the photosynthetic electron transport chain. Large …
