Functional divergence of LhcSR and PsbS in zeaxanthin‐mediated non‐photochemical quenching
Summary To protect photosystem II from excess light, non‐photochemical quenching (NPQ) dissipates excess energy as heat. NPQ relies on trigger proteins, LhcSR in algae and PsbS in vascular plants, and the light‐regulated xanthophyll cycle, which interconverts violaxanthin and zeaxanthin through the opposite activities of violaxanthin de‐epoxidase and ...

Cytokinin–phyB signaling modulates PSII photochemistry during prolonged darkness. Summary Cytokinins (CKs) delay dark‐induced senescence, but how they tune photosynthetic function in darkness remains unclear. We investigated the effects of classical aromatic CK benzylaminopurine and CK‐derived compound 1‐(2‐methoxyethyl)‐3‐(1,2,3‐thiadiazol‐5‐yl)urea ...

Potassium Deficiency and Hormone Signalling in Plants
ABSTRACT Potassium (K or K⁺) is a vital macronutrient that influences numerous physiological processes related to plant physiology and development. Recently, there is a growing focus on enhancing K+‐use efficiency (KUE) to ensure optimal plant growth, especially in K+ deficient soils.

ABSTRACT Multigenerational stress exposure induces stress memory in plants, influencing resource allocation, defence mechanisms, and productivity. Weed competition imposes both resource‐based (abiotic) and allelopathic (biotic) stress, engaging overlapping hormonal pathways.

Chloroplast glycerolipid metabolism during maintenance and under stress
SUMMARY Chloroplasts are the defining organelles in green plant tissues, converting light into chemical energy with the help of an intricate and extensive membrane system, the thylakoids. In the process, they release oxygen and assimilate carbon and other elements into molecules that constitute a plant cell's building blocks.

Significance Statement Life on Earth depends on photosynthetic CO2 fixation via the Calvin–Benson–Bassham cycle to form organic carbon. This process evolved first in cyanobacteria and was later conveyed to eukaryotes, giving rise to plastids in algae and plants. To cope with low atmospheric CO2 concentrations that developed over the course of evolution,
