Phytomelatonin in stress management in agriculture
Melatonin was discovered as a pineal gland hormone in animals and is now more significantly known as a signaling molecule in plants' biotic and abiotic stressors.

Inhibitors of Photosynthetic Electron Transport. The Properties of Diazidodialkylbenzoquinones
Abstract The potential photoaffinity reagents 2,5-diazido-3-methyl-6-isopropyl-1,4-benzoquinone (DAZMIB) and 2,5-diazido-3,6-dimethyl-1,4-benzoquinone (DAZDMQ), which are analogs of the well-known inhibitor 2,5-dibromo-3-methyl-6-isopropyl-1,4-benzoquinone (DBMIB), block photosynthetic electron transport in spinach chloroplasts.

Origin and evolution of water oxidation before the last common ancestor of the Cyanobacteria [PDF]
Photosystem II, the water oxidizing enzyme, altered the course of evolution by filling the atmosphere with oxygen. Here, we reconstruct the origin and evolution of water oxidation at an unprecedented level of detail by studying the phylogeny of all D1 ...

The ribosome assembly GTPase EngA is involved in redox signaling in cyanobacteria
Photosynthetic organisms must cope with environmental challenges, like those imposed by the succession of days and nights or by sudden changes in light intensities, that trigger global changes in gene expression and metabolism.

On a new inhibitor of photosynthetic electron-transport in isolated chloroplasts
A halogenated benzoquinone has been found to inhibit the photosynthetic electron transport system in isolated chloroplasts. 2·10-6ᴍ of dibromo-thymoquinone inhibit the Hill- reaction with NADP, methylviologen or anthraquinone to 100%, but do not effect the photoreduction of NADP at the expense of an artificial electron donor.

RNA-Seq Transcriptome Analysis of Potato with Differential Tolerance to Bentazone Herbicide
Potato (Solanum tuberosum), an important food crop worldwide, is threatened by broadleaf weeds. Bentazone is an effective herbicide for controlling weeds; however, as a photosynthesis inhibitor, it can also affect potato plants.

Chloroplast damage induced by the inhibition of fatty acid synthesis triggers autophagy in chlamydomonas [PDF]
Fatty acids are synthesized in the stroma of plant and algal chloroplasts by the fatty acid synthase complex. Newly synthesized fatty acids are then used to generate plastidial lipids that are essential for chloroplast structure and function.

Guard cell chloroplasts are essential for blue light-dependent stomatal opening in Arabidopsis.
Blue light (BL) induces stomatal opening through the activation of H+-ATPases with subsequent ion accumulation in guard cells. In most plant species, red light (RL) enhances BL-dependent stomatal opening.
