▪ Abstract Chlororespiration has been defined as a respiratory electron transport chain (ETC)
in interaction with the photosynthetic ETC in thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts. The …

It is well known that over the last 60 years the trend of long-lived greenhouse gas emissions
have shown a strong acceleration. There is an increasing concern and a mounting …

Several species of unicellular green algae, such as the model green microalga
Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, can operate under either aerobic photosynthesis or anaerobic …

Abstract State 1–State 2 transitions ('state transitions') are a rapid physiological adaptation
mechanism that adjusts the way absorbed light energy is distributed between photosystem I …

Plants and green algae optimize photosynthesis in changing light conditions by balancing
the amount of light absorbed by photosystems I and II. These photosystems work in series to …

We investigated the function of chlorophyll a/b binding antenna proteins Chlorophyll Protein
26 (CP26) and CP24 in light harvesting and regulation of photosynthesis by isolating …

State transitions allow for the balancing of the light excitation energy between photosystem I
and photosystem II and for optimal photosynthetic activity when photosynthetic organisms …

In addition to the linear electron transport, several alternative Photosystem I-driven (PS I)
electron pathways recycle the electrons to the intersystem electron carriers mediated by …

Photosynthetic organisms respond to changes in ambient light by modulating the size and
composition of their light-harvesting complexes, which in the case of the green alga …

Photosynthetic and antioxidant responses following exposure to either ultraviolet-A or
ultraviolet-B were contrasted in two species of the unicellular green alga, Dunaliella …
