Is qE Always the Major Component of Non-photochemical Quenching?

2008
Non-photochemical quenching (NPQ) was measured in Col-0 and npq1 mutant plants of Arabidopsis thaliana exposed for 40 min to different light intensities (85, 175, 420, 750 and 1,200 μmol photons m−2 s−1). A light-induced increase of NPQ was measured in Col-0 as well as in npq1 plants but no significant differences were found between two genotypes.

Temperature Dependence of Photochemical and Non-Photochemical Fluorescence Quenching in Intact Pea Leaves

Journal of Plant Physiology, 1994
Summary The thermosensitivity of the photosynthetic apparatus of 12-day-old seedlings of Pisum sativum cv. Ran was investigated within the temperature range of 2–50 °C. Fluorescence quenching was used as a criteria. The photochemical (qP) and non-photochemical (qN) fluorescence quenching were measured after a 5-min treatment at the respective ...

Collisional quenching in the photochemical isomerisation of 1,3,5-cycloheptatriene

Chemical Physics Letters, 1969
Abstract The photochemical isomerisation of 1,3,5-cycloheptatriene to toluene occurs via the vibrationally excited ground state molecule. Studies of this isomerisation at seven wavelengths and its quenching by various added gases yield values for the vibrational energy removed per collision.

Non-photochemical quenching of chlorophyll fluorescence in the green alga Dunaliella

Photosynthesis Research, 1990
The relaxation of the non-photochemical quenching of chlorophyll fluorescence has been investigated in cells of the green alga Dunaliella following illumination. The relaxation after the addition of DCMU or darkening was strongly biphasic. The uncoupler NH4Cl induced rapid relaxation of both phases, which were therefore both energy-dependent quenching,

The structural basis of non-photochemical quenching is revealed?

Trends in Plant Science, 2006
Light-harvesting complex II (LHCII, the major plant light-harvesting pigment-protein complex, efficiently harvests light-energy. However, if the incident light intensity is too high and photosynthesis becomes saturated, LHCII can switch into a quenching state that prevents photodamage.

Non-photochemical fluorescence quenching and the diadinoxanthin cycle in a marine diatom

Photosynthesis Research, 1994
The diadinoxanthin cycle (DD-cycle) in chromophyte algae involves the interconversion of two carotenoids, diadinoxanthin (DD) and diatoxanthin (DT). We investigated the kinetics of light-induced DD-cycling in the marine diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum and its role in dissipating excess excitation energy in PS II. Within 15 min following an increase in

Role of electron-transfer quenching of chlorophyll fluorescence by carotenoids in non-photochemical quenching of green plants

Biochemical Society Transactions, 2005
NPQ (non-photochemical quenching) is a fundamental photosynthetic mechanism by which plants protect themselves against excess excitation energy and the resulting photodamage. A discussed molecular mechanism of the so-called feedback de-excitation component (qE) of NPQ involves the formation of a quenching complex.

A high‐resolution portrait of the annual dynamics of photochemical and non‐photochemical quenching in needles of Pinus sylvestris

Physiologia Plantarum, 2011
Partitioning of excitation energy between photochemical quenching (PQ) and non‐photochemical quenching (NPQ) processes is constantly adjusted in the leaf in order to preserve the photosynthetic energy balance. Adjustments in PQ and NPQ often result from a combination of different temporal components that can be simplified into reversible and sustained ...

Establishing the Photochemical Reflectance Index (PRI) as a reliable proxy for Non-Photochemical Quenching (NPQ)

On a global scale, the scientific community is to date unable to close the CO2 budget, with implications for policymakers in regard to limiting global warming to internationally agreed levels. Recently, remote sensing of Solar-Induced Chlorophyll Fluorescence (SIF) has emerged as a promising proxy for Gross Primary Productivity (GPP).
