Effects of fluoride on chlorophyll a fluorescence in spinach

open access: yesEnvironmental Pollution, 1995
Chlorophyll a (chl a) fluorescence was used to determine the effects of treatments with gaseous HF or aqueous solutions of NaF on the photosynthetic apparatus of spinach prior to the appearance of visible injury. Placing the petioles in 2 mM NaF for 3 h resulted in the accumulation of 240 ppm F in leaf blades. The second oldest leaves of spinach plants

Photophysiological and photosynthetic complex changes during iron starvation in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 and Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942

open access: yes, 2013
Iron is an essential component in many protein complexes involved in photosynthesis, but environmental iron availability is often low as oxidized forms of iron are insoluble in water.

A Novel Type of Fluorescent Chlorophyll Catabolites Hypermodified by Lipophilic Chloroplast Membrane Components

open access: yesHelvetica Chimica Acta, EarlyView.
Breakdown of chlorophyll (Chl) is a fundamental biological phenomenon. In de‐greening banana leaves, Chl is transformed into colorless “fluorescent” Chl‐catabolites (FCCs) that cause the leaves to luminesce blue. Hypothesis‐driven search for apolar banana‐FCCs, and structure elucidation, have revealed a striking first link between lipid metabolism and ...

Differential responses of seven contrasting species to high light using pigment and chlorophyll a fluorescence [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Stress Physiology & Biochemistry, 2011
High light intensity may induce severe photodamage to chloroplast and consequently cause decreases in the yield capacity of plants and destruction of pigments, causing an overall yellowing of the foliage.

Mechanisms of light harvesting by photosystem II in plants

open access: yes, 2015
Light harvesting by photosystem II (PSII) in plants is highly efficient and acclimates to rapid changes in the intensity of sunlight. However, the mechanisms of PSII light harvesting have remained experimentally inaccessible.

The regulatory frameworks surrounding CRISPR‐edited papaya and their impact on international commerce

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract The papaya tree (Carica papaya L.), native to the Americas, is cultivated in tropical regions and holds substantial economic importance, with an estimated export volume of 365 000 t in 2023. However, diseases caused by viruses, fungi, bacteria, and nematodes can lead to severe losses.

Demonstration, validation, and application of hyperspectral microscopy for the collection of cyanobacterial spectral signatures

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Cyanobacterial and other algal blooms are an environmental concern in waterbodies worldwide. While these blooms are a nuisance for recreational activities, they can also be harmful to human and wildlife health when the algae produce and release toxins.
