Light is essential for photosynthesis. Nevertheless, its intensity widely changes depending
on time of day, weather, season, and localization of individual leaves within canopies. This …

The effect of various abiotic stresses on photosynthetic apparatus is inevitably associated
with formation of harmful reactive oxygen species (ROS). In this review, recent progress on …

Increases in ambient temperatures have been a severe threat to crop production in many
countries around the world under climate change. Chloroplasts serve as metabolic centers …

Biological membranes are highly ordered structures consisting of mosaics of lipids and
proteins. Elevated temperatures can directly and effectively change the properties of these …

Photosynthesis uses sunlight to convert water and carbon dioxide into biomass and oxygen.
When in excess, light can be dangerous for the photosynthetic apparatus because it can …

Photosystem II (PSII) of photosynthesis catalyzes one of the most challenging reactions in
nature, the light driven oxidation of water and release of molecular oxygen. PSII couples the …

Astaxanthin (AX), a lipid-soluble pigment belonging to the xanthophyll carotenoids family,
has recently garnered significant attention due to its unique physical properties, biochemical …

High temperature is one of the biggest abiotic stress challenges for agriculture. While, Nitric
oxide (NO) is gaining increasing attention from plant science community due to its …

Removal of low-carbon fatty amines (LCFAs) in wastewater treatment poses a significant
technical challenge due to their small molecular size, high polarity, high bond dissociation …

In recent years, the safety and ecology threat of cyanobacterial burst has drawn wide
concern, especially the release of toxic microcystin-LR (MC-LR). To break through the …
