Ultrafast energy quenching mechanism of LHCSR3-dependent photoprotection in Chlamydomonas
Nature CommunicationsPhotosynthetic organisms have evolved an essential energy-dependent quenching (qE) mechanism to avoid any lethal damages caused by high light. While the triggering mechanism of qE has been well addressed, candidates for quenchers are often debated.

Far-red Fraction: An Improved Metric for Characterizing Phytochrome Effects on Morphology
Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 2020 Phytochrome, a well-studied photoreceptor in plants, primarily absorbs in the red (R) and far-red (FR) regions and is responsible for the perception of shade and subsequent morphological responses.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.Quantifying phenotypic plasticity, the capacity of organisms to adjust phenotypes in response to environmental changes, is essential in understanding ecological and physiological resilience under climate stress. Here, we introduce a novel statistical approach, the Environmentally Standardised Plasticity Index (*ESPI), which integrates Hedges'g for ...

Roles of Alp and Prt Regulons in the Response of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to UV‐C Light
Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.Our results show that LexA‐regulated genes are the first to be induced after DNA damage, while autolysis functions controlled by the Alp system are the last. Death by UV is mediated primarily by Alp or Prt systems, depending on the Pseudomonas aeruginosa subline. ABSTRACT UV light is a well‐studied environmental DNA damaging agent.
