DNA Damage and Repair in Plants under Ultraviolet and Ionizing Radiations [PDF]
The Scientific World Journal, 2015 Being sessile, plants are continuously exposed to DNA-damaging agents present in the environment such as ultraviolet (UV) and ionizing radiations (IR). Sunlight acts as an energy source for photosynthetic plants; hence, avoidance of UV radiations (namely,

Skin color-specific and spectrally-selective naked-eye dosimetry of UVA, B and C radiations [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2018 Current ultraviolet (UV) sensors cannot differentiate between UVA, B and C, each of which has a remarkably different impact on human health. Here the authors show spectrally-selective colorimetric monitoring of ultraviolet radiations by developing a ...

Prochlorococcus and Synechococcus have evolved different adaptive mechanisms to cope with light and UV stress [PDF]
, 2012 Prochlorococcus and Synechococcus, which numerically dominate vast oceanic areas, are the two most abundant oxygenic phototrophs on Earth. Although they require solar energy for photosynthesis, excess light and associated high UV radiations can induce ...
