The light reactions in photosynthesis drive both linear and cyclic electron transport around
photosystem I (PSI). Linear electron transport generates both ATP and NADPH, whereas PSI …

The higher plant chloroplast thylakoid membrane system performs the light-dependent
reactions of photosynthesis. These provide the ATP and NADPH required for the fixation of …

The superior productivity of C4 plants is achieved via a metabolic C4 cycle which acts as a
CO2 pump across mesophyll and bundle sheath (BS) cells and requires an additional input …

To assess the roles of the cyclic electron flow around PSI (CEF-PSI) and O2-dependent
alternative pathways including the water–water cycle in fluctuating light, we grew the wild …

Photosynthetic acclimation, the ability to adjust the composition of the thylakoid membrane
to optimise the efficiency of electron transfer to the prevailing light conditions, is crucial to …

The photosynthetic acclimation of boreal evergreen conifers is controlled by regulatory and
photoprotective mechanisms that allow conifers to cope with extreme environmental …

Grana stacking in plant chloroplast thylakoid membranes dynamically responds to the light
environment. These dynamics have been linked to regulation of the relative antenna sizes of …

Photosynthetic electron flow operates in two modes, linear and cyclic. In cyclic electron flow
(CEF), electrons are recycled around photosystem I. As a result, a transthylakoid proton …

Non-destructive methods for the assessment of photosynthetic parameters of plants are
widely applied to evaluate rapidly the photosynthetic performance, plant health, and shifts in …

Chlorophyll molecules absorb photosynthetic active radiation (PAR). The resulting excitation
energy is dissipated by three competing pathways at the level of photosystem:(i) …
