Sensory Perception of Fluctuating Light in Arabidopsis. [PDF]
Summary When exposed to shade from neighbours, competitive plants modify their growth patterns to improve access to light. In dense plant stands, ranging from forests to humid grasslands and crops, shade is interrupted by sunflecks penetrating the canopy.

Does Fluctuating Light Affect Crop Yield? A Focus on the Dynamic Photosynthesis of Two Soybean Varieties [PDF]
In natural environments, plants are exposed to variable light conditions, but photosynthesis has been mainly studied at steady state and this might overestimate carbon (C) uptake at the canopy scale.

The photosynthetic response of C3 and C4 bioenergy grass species to fluctuating light
Bioenergy grass species are a renewable energy source, but their productivity has not been fully realized. Improving photosynthetic efficiency has been proposed as a mechanism to increase the productivity of bioenergy grass species.

Photoinhibition of Photosystem I Induced by Different Intensities of Fluctuating Light Is Determined by the Kinetics of ∆pH Formation Rather Than Linear Electron Flow [PDF]
Fluctuating light (FL) can cause the selective photoinhibition of photosystem I (PSI) in angiosperms. In nature, leaves usually experience FL conditions with the same low light and different high light intensities, but the effects of different FL ...

LHCSR3-Type NPQ Prevents Photoinhibition and Slowed Growth under Fluctuating Light in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii [PDF]
Natural light intensities can rise several orders of magnitude over subsecond time spans, posing a major challenge for photosynthesis. Fluctuating light tolerance in the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii requires alternative electron pathways, but the

A Holistic Approach to Study Photosynthetic Acclimation Responses of Plants to Fluctuating Light [PDF]
Plants in natural environments receive light through sunflecks, the duration and distribution of these being highly variable across the day. Consequently, plants need to adjust their photosynthetic processes to avoid photoinhibition and maximize yield ...

Different Strategies for Photosynthetic Regulation under Fluctuating Light in Two Sympatric Paphiopedilum Species [PDF]
Fluctuating light can cause selective photoinhibition of photosystem I (PSI) in angiosperms. Cyclic electron flow (CEF) around PSI and electron flux from water via the electron transport chain to oxygen (the water-water cycle) play important roles in ...

Drivers of Natural Variation in Water-Use Efficiency Under Fluctuating Light Are Promising Targets for Improvement in Sorghum [PDF]
Improving leaf intrinsic water-use efficiency (iWUE), the ratio of photosynthetic CO2 assimilation to stomatal conductance, could decrease crop freshwater consumption.
