Chlorophyll a fluorescence (ChlF) has been used for decades to study the organization,
functioning, and physiology of photosynthesis at the leaf and subcellular levels. ChlF is now …

Evergreen conifers are champions of winter survival, based on their remarkable ability to
acclimate to cold and develop cold hardiness. Counterintuitively, autumn cold acclimation is …

In evergreen conifers, where the foliage amount changes little with season, accurate
detection of the underlying “photosynthetic phenology” from satellite remote sensing has …

The use of solar energy in photosynthesis depends on the ability to safely dissipate excess
energy. The key dissipation process employed by plants in their natural environment is …

Mid‐to‐high latitude forests play an important role in the terrestrial carbon cycle, but the
representation of photosynthesis in boreal forests by current modelling and observational …

Photosynthetic light harvesting in plants is regulated in response to changes in incident light
intensity. Absorption of light that exceeds a plant's capacity for fixation of CO2 results in …

▪ Abstract When plants are exposed to light intensities in excess of those that can be utilized
in photosynthetic electron transport, nonphotochemical dissipation of excitation energy is …

Abstract Changes in environmental conditions such as light intensity or temperature result in
an imbalance between the light energy absorbed through photochemistry versus the energy …

Exposure to low temperatures is one of the most important plant abiotic stress factors. In this
review we describe the damages that chilling and/or freezing temperatures can cause to …

A conserved regulatory mechanism protects plants against the potentially damaging effects
of excessive light. Nearly all photosynthetic eukaryotes are able to dissipate excess …
