Photoprotection of photosystem II (PSII) is essential to avoid the light-induced damage of the
photosynthetic apparatus due to the formation of reactive oxygen species (= photo-oxidative …

In their natural environment plants and algae are exposed to rapidly changing light
conditions and light intensities. Illumination with high light intensities has the potential to …

We have reviewed the current state of multidisciplinary knowledge of the photoprotective
mechanism in the photosystem II antenna underlying non-photochemical chlorophyll …

At the whole plant level, the effect of stress is usually perceived as a decrease in
photosynthesis and growth. That is why this review is focused mainly on the effect of drought …

▪ Abstract When plants are exposed to light intensities in excess of those that can be utilized
in photosynthetic electron transport, nonphotochemical dissipation of excitation energy is …

The production of active oxygen species is inevitable in chloroplasts even under favorable
environmental conditions. The photoreduction of oxygen has been observed even in …

The photosystem II (PSII) light-harvesting system carries out two essential functions, the
efficient collection of light energy for photosynthesis, and the regulated dissipation of …

Plants must regulate their use of absorbed light energy on a minute-by-minute basis to
maximize the efficiency of photosynthesis and to protect photosystem II (PSII) reaction …

Remote estimation of Sun‐induced chlorophyll fluorescence emitted by terrestrial vegetation
can provide an unparalleled opportunity to track spatiotemporal variations of photosynthetic …

Photosynthetic organisms have developed multiple protective mechanisms to survive under
high-light conditions. In plants, one of these mechanisms is the thermal dissipation of …
