Chlorophyll fluorescence analysis is one of the most powerful and widely used techniques to
study the effect of stresses on the photosynthetic process. From the first utilization, the F v/F …

We review the mechanism underlying nonphotochemical chlorophyll fluorescence
quenching (NPQ) and its role in protecting plants against photoinhibition. This review …

A novel emerging technology for the assessment of the photoprotective 'power'of non-
photochemical fluorescence quenching (NPQ) has been reviewed and its insightful …

Photosynthesis is the primary life process in nature, and how to improve photosynthetic
capacity under abiotic stresses is crucial to carbon fixation and plant productivity. As a multi …

This study explored the effects of brassinolide (BR) soaking, preharvest ultraviolet-B (UV-B)
radiation, and their combined treatments on physiological characteristics, chlorophyll …

Photoinhibition is the light‐induced reduction in photosynthetic efficiency and is usually
associated with damage to the D1 photosystem II (PSII) reaction centre protein. This damage …

Fresh-cut lettuces are susceptible to tissue browning and quality deterioration during post-
harvest storage, even if they are kept in cold temperature. In this study we tried to counteract …

The rice, like other plants, undergoes photoprotection mode by increasing
nonphotochemical quenching (NPQ) in high light intensity (> 1200 µmol m− 2s− 1 PPFD) …

Under blue light, plant chloroplasts relocate to different areas of the cell. The photoreceptor
phototropin2 (phot2) mediates the chloroplast movement mechanism under excess blue …

High light intensities raise photosynthetic and plant growth rates but can cause damage to
the photosynthetic machinery. The likelihood and severity of deleterious effects are …
