Effects of spine-shading on aspects of photosynthesis for three cactus species
Botanical Sciences, 2016 We evaluated the effect of spine removal on three cactus species varying in spine-shading of stems. Turbinicarpus schmiedickeanus showed the greater spine shading (c. 61 %), followed by Mammillaria zephyranthoides (43 %), and Echinocactus platyacanthus (

Site, trigger, quenching mechanism and recovery of non-photochemical quenching in cyanobacteria: recent updates [PDF]
Photosynthesis Research, 2018 Cyanobacteria exhibit a novel form of non-photochemical quenching (NPQ) at the level of the phycobilisome. NPQ is a process that protects photosystem II (PSII) from possible highlight-induced photo-damage. Although significant advancement has been made in understanding the NPQ, there are still some missing details.

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2018 Light availability is considered a key factor regulating the thermal sensitivity of reef building corals, where excessive excitation of photosystem II (PSII) further exacerbates pressure on photochemical pathways already compromised by heat stress. Coral

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2022 Abstract The influence of anthropogenic discharges on the environment is an increasing concern among environmental toxicologists. This investigation set out to analyse the impacts of selected herbicides; diuron, terbuthylazine and isoproturon on two strains of Ectocarpus siliculosus with different pollution histories, LIA4 and Es524 ...

Photosynthesis sensitivity to NH4+-N change with nitrogen fertilizer type
Plant, Soil and Environment, 2014 N-fertilization type affected differently tomato growth. In the field experiment, hydroponic cultures were conducted using NO3-N (5 mmol); mixture of KNO3-N (3 mmol) and (NH4)2SO4-N (2 mmol); NH4+-N (5 mmol) or urea (5 mmol) as nitrogen source.

Is PsbS the site of non-photochemical quenching in photosynthesis? [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2004 The PsbS protein of photosystem II functions in the regulation of photosynthetic light harvesting. Along with a low thylakoid lumen pH and the presence of de-epoxidized xanthophylls, PsbS is necessary for photoprotective thermal dissipation (qE) of excess absorbed light energy in plants, measured as non-photochemical quenching of chlorophyll ...
