Tomato and mini-cucumber tolerance to photoperiodic injury involves photorespiration and the engagement of nighttime cyclic electron flow from dynamic LEDs [PDF]
Controlled environment agriculture (CEA) is critical for achieving year-round food security in many regions of the world. CEA is a resource-intensive endeavor, with lighting consuming a large fraction of the energy.

Electron flow through NDH-1 complexes is the major driver of cyclic electron flow-dependent proton pumping in cyanobacteria [PDF]
Cyclic electron flow (CEF) around Photosystem I is vital to balancing the photosynthetic energy budget of cyanobacteria and other photosynthetic organisms. The coupling of CEF to proton pumping has long been hypothesized to occur, providing proton motive

Redox Modulation of Cyclic Electron Flow around Photosystem I in C3 Plants
We have investigated the occurrence of cyclic electron flow in intact spinach leaves. In particular, we have tested the hypothesis that cyclic flow requires the presence of supercomplexes in the thylakoid membrane or other strong associations between proteins.

Defects in the Expression of Chloroplast Proteins Leads to H2O2 Accumulation and Activation of Cyclic Electron Flow around Photosystem I. [PDF]
We describe a new member of the class of mutants in Arabidopsis exhibiting high rates of cyclic electron flow around photosystem I (CEF), a light-driven process that produces ATP but not NADPH. High cyclic electron flow 2 (hcef2) shows strongly increased

Nitric Oxide Alleviates Low-Light-Induced Photosynthetic Impairment by Improving Photosystem Coordination and Electron Transport in Tomato Seedlings [PDF]
Low light is a major environmental constraint that limits crop productivity by restricting photosynthetic carbon assimilation and disrupting photosynthetic function. Nitric oxide (NO) is an important signaling molecule involved in plant stress responses;

The Effects of Cold Stress on Photosynthesis in Hibiscus Plants. [PDF]
The present work studies the effects of cold on photosynthesis, as well as the involvement in the chilling stress of chlororespiratory enzymes and ferredoxin-mediated cyclic electron flow, in illuminated plants of Hibiscus rosa-sinensis.

Photoprotective roles of ascorbate and cstyleZostera marinacstyle
The oxygen-evolving complex (OEC) of Zostera marina is prone to deactivation under visible light, which results in a formation of the long-lived radical P680+. The mechanism to prevent damage caused by P680+ remains unclear.
