Short-term responses of Photosystem I to heat stress 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
Michel Havaux 《Photosynthesis research》1996,47(1):85-97
When 23°C-grown potato leaves (Solanum tuberosum L.) were exposed for 15 min to elevated temperatures in weak light, a dramatic and preferential inactivation of Photosystem (PS) II was observed at temperatures higher than about 38°C. In vivo photoacoustic measurements indicated that, concomitantly with the loss of PS II activity, heat stress induced a marked gas-uptake activity both in far-red light (>715 nm) exciting only PS I and in broadband light (350–600 nm) exciting PS I and PS II. In view of its suppression by nitrogen gas and oxygen and its stimulation by high carbon-dioxide concentrations, the bulk of the photoacoustically measured gas uptake by heat-stressed leaves was ascribed to rapid carbon-dioxide solubilization in response to light-modulated stroma alkalization coupled to PS I-driven electron transport. Heat-induced gas uptake was observed to be insensitive to the PS II inhibitor diuron, sensitive to the plastocyanin inhibitor HgCl2 and saturated at a rather high photon flux density of around 1200 E m–2 s–1. Upon transition from far-red light to darkness, the oxidized reaction center P700+ of PS I was re-reduced very slowly in control leaves (with a half time t1/2 higher than 500 ms), as measured by leaf absorbance changes at around 820 nm. Heat stress caused a spectacular acceleration of the postillumination P700+ reduction, with t1/2 falling to a value lower than 50 ms (after leaf exposure to 48°C). The decreased t1/2 was sensitive to HgCl2 and insensitive to diuron, methyl viologen (an electron acceptor of PS I competing with the endogenous acceptor ferredoxin) and anaerobiosis. This acceleration of the P700+ reduction was very rapidly induced by heat treatment (within less than 5 min) and persisted even after prolonged irradiation of the leaves with far-red light. After heat stress, the plastoquinone pool exhibited reduction in darkness as indicated by the increase in the apparent Fo level of chlorophyll fluorescence which could be quenched by far-red light. Application (for 1 min) of far-red light to heat-pretreated leaves also induced a reversible quenching of the maximal fluorescence level Fm, suggesting formation of a pH gradient in far-red light. Taken together, the presented data indicate that PS I responded to the heat-induced loss of PS II photochemical activity by catalyzing an electron flow from stromal reductants. Heat-stress-induced PS I electron transport independent of PS II seems to constitute a protective mechanism since block of this electron pathway in anaerobiosis was observed to result in a dramatic photoinactivation of PS I.Abbreviations PFD

Photoinhibition was analyzed in O2-evolving and in Tris-treated PS II membrane fragments by measuring flash-induced absorption changes at 830 nm reflecting the transient P680+ formation and oxygen evolution. Irradiation by visible light affects the PS II electron transfer at two different sites: a) photoinhibition of site I eliminates the capability to perform a stable charge separation between P680+ and QA
- within the reaction center (RC) and b) photoinhibition of site II blocks the electron transfer from YZ to P680+. The quantum yield of site I photoinhibition (2–3×10-7 inhibited RC/quantum) is independent of the functional integrity of the water oxidizing system. In contrast, the quantum yield of photoinhibition at site II depends strongly on the oxygen evolution capacity. In O2-evolving samples, the quantum yield of site II photoinhibition is about 10-7 inhibited RC/quantum. After selective elimination of the O2-evolving capacity by Tris-treatment, the quantum yield of photoinhibition at site II depends on the light intensity. At low intensity (<3 W/m2), the quantum yield is 10-4 inhibited RC/quantum (about 1000 times higher than in oxygen evolving samples). Based on these results it is inferred that the dominating deleterious effect of photoinhibition cannot be ascribed to an unique target site or a single mechanism because it depends on different experimental conditions (e.g., light intensity) and the functional status of the PS II complex.Abbreviations A830

The role of electron transport to O2 in mitigating against photoinactivation of Photosystem (PS) II was investigated in leaves of pea (Pisum sativum L.) grown in moderate light (250 mol m–2 s–1). During short-term illumination, the electron flux at PS II and non-radiative dissipation of absorbed quanta, calculated from chlorophyll fluorescence quenching, increased with increasing O2 concentration at each light regime tested. The photoinactivation of PS II in pea leaves was monitored by the oxygen yield per repetitive flash as a function of photon exposure (mol photons m–2). The number of functional PS II complexes decreased nonlinearly with increasing photon exposure, with greater photoinactivation of PS II at a lower O2 concentration. The results suggest that electron transport to O2, via the twin processes of oxygenase photorespiration and the Mehler reaction, mitigates against the photoinactivation of PS II in vivo, through both utilization of photons in electron transport and increased nonradiative dissipation of excitation. Photoprotection via electron transport to O2
in vivo is a useful addition to the large extent of photoprotection mediated by carbon-assimilatory electron transport in 1.1% CO2 alone.Abbreviations Fm, Fo, Fv-

Factors Limiting Photosynthetic Recovery in Sweet Pepper Leaves After Short-Term Chilling Stress Under Low Irradiance 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The effects of chilling treatment (4 °C) under low irradiance, LI (100 mol m–2 s–1) and in the dark on subsequent recovery of photosynthesis in chilling-sensitive sweet pepper leaves were investigated by comparing the ratio of quantum yields of photosystem (PS) 2 and CO2 assimilation, PS2/CO2, measured in normal air (21 % O2, NA) and low O2-air (2% O2, LOA), and by analyzing chlorophyll (Chl) a fluorescence parameters. Chilling treatment in the dark had little effect on Fv/Fm and PS2/CO2, but it caused the decrease of net photosynthetic rate (P
N) under saturating irradiance after 6-h chilling treatment, indicating that short-term chilling alone did not induce PS2 photoinhibition. Furthermore, photorespiration and Mehler reaction also did not obviously change during subsequent recovery after chilling stress in the dark. During chilling treatment under LI, there were obvious changes in Fv/Fm and PS2/CO2, determined in NA or LOA. Fv/Fm could recover fully in 4 h at 25 °C, and PS2/CO2 increased at the end of the treatment, as determined in both NA and LOA. During subsequent recovery, PS2/CO2 in LOA decreased faster than in NA. Thus the Mehler reaction might play an important role during chilling treatment under LI, and photorespiration was an important process during the subsequent recovery. The recovery of PN under saturating irradiance determined in NA and LOA took about 50 h, implying that there were some factors besides CO2 assimilation limiting the recovery of photosynthesis. From the progress of reduced P700 and the increase of the Mehler reaction during chilling under LI we propose that active oxygen species were the factors inducing PS1 photoinhibition, which prevented the recovery of photosynthesis in optimal conditions because of the slow recovery of the oxidizable P700. 相似文献

Photoinhibition of the light-induced Photosystem I (PS I) electron transfer activity from the reduced dichlorophenol indophenol to methyl viologen was studied. PS I preparations with Chl/P700 ratios of about 180 (PS I-180), 100 (PS I-100) and 40 (PS I(HA)-40) were isolated from spinach thylakoid membranes by the treatments with Triton X-100, followed by sucrose density gradient centrifugation and hydroxylapatite column chromatography. White light irradiation (1.1 × 104E m–2 s–1) of PS I-180 for 2 hours bleached 50% of the chlorophyll and caused a 58% decrease in the electron transfer activity with virtually no loss of the primary donor, P700. The flash-induced absorbance change showed the decay phase with a half time of about 10 s that was attributed to the P700 triplet, suggesting that the photoinhibitory light treatment caused the destruction of the PS I acceptor(s), Fx and possibly A1. PS I-100 was similarly photobleached by the irradiation and the electron transfer activity decreased. There was, however, no apparent photoinhibition of the electron transport activity in PS I(HA)-40. Photoinhibition similar to that seen in PS I-180 also occurred in membrane fragments that were isolated without any detergent from a PS II-deficient mutant strain of the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. PS I-180 was not photoinhibited under anaerobic conditions. The production of superoxide and fatty acid hydroperoxide during white light irradiation was significantly greater in PS I-180 than in PS I(HA)-40. The mechanism of photoinhibition in PS I preparations is discussed in relation to the formation of toxic oxygen molecules.Abbreviations A0,A1

The components of non-photochemical chlorophyll fluorescence quenching (qN) in barley leaves have been quantified by a combination of relaxation kinetics analysis and 77 K fluorescence measurements (Walters RG and Horton P 1991). Analysis of the behaviour of chlorophyll fluorescence parameters and oxygen evolution at low light (when only state transitions — measured as qNt — are present) and at high light (when only photoinhibition — measured as qNi — is increasing) showed that the parameter qNt represents quenching processes located in the antenna and that qNi measures quenching processes located in the reaction centre but which operate significantly only when those centres are closed. The theoretical predictions of a variety of models describing possible mechanisms for high-energy-state quenching, measured as the residual quenching, qNe, were then tested against the experimental data for both fluorescence quenching and quantum yield of oxygen evolution. Only one model was found to agree with these data, one in which antennae exist in two states, efficient in either energy transfer or energy dissipation, and in which those photosynthetic units in a dissipative state are unable to exchange energy with non-dissipative units.Abbreviations: Fo, Fm

Evaluation of the role of State transitions in determining the efficiency of light utilisation for CO2 assimilation in leaves 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Wheat leaves were exposed to light treatments that excite preferentially Photosystem I (PS I) or Photosystem II (PS II) and induce State 1 or State 2, respectively. Simultaneous measurements of CO2 assimilation, chlorophyll fluorescence and absorbance at 820 nm were used to estimate the quantum efficiencies of CO2 assimilation and PS II and PS I photochemistry during State transitions. State transitions were found to be associated with changes in the efficiency with which an absorbed photon is transferred to an open PS II reaction centre, but did not correlate with changes in the quantum efficiencies of PS II photochemistry or CO2 assimilation. Studies of the phosphorylation status of the light harvesting chlorophyll protein complex associated with PS II (LHC II) in wheat leaves and using chlorina mutants of barley which are deficient in this complex demonstrate that the changes in the effective antennae size of Photosystem II occurring during State transitions require LHC II and correlate with the phosphorylation status of LHC II. However, such correlations were not found in maize leaves. It is concluded that State transitions in C3 leaves are associated with phosphorylation-induced modifications of the PS II antennae, but these changes do not serve to optimise the use of light absorbed by the leaf for CO2 assimilation.Abbreviations Fm, Fo, Fv

Energy storage measurements by modulated photothermal radiometry (PTR) were carried out on intact leaves to assess the value of the PTR method for photosynthesis research. In particular, correlations to the redox state of P700 under various conditions were examined. PTR monitors modulated light conversion to heat by sensing the resulting modulated infra-red radiation emitted from the leaf. It is, therefore, a complementary method to photoacoustics for estimating energy storage and its time variation, particularly under controlled leaf atmosphere.With modulated light-1 (>690 nm) the energy storage approached zero and P700 was maximally oxidized. When background light of shorter wavelength (<690 nm-light-2) was added, energy storage momentarily increased (a manifestation of Emerson enhancement) while P700 was reduced. The values of both parameters varied as a function of the background light intensity, keeping a mutual linear relationship. Following the initial change, there was a slow reversal transient of P700 oxidation with a parallel decrease in energy storage. Temporal correlation to P700 redox state after dark adaptation was observed also for the energy storage measured in modulated light 2 when combined with background actinic light of medium intensity (about 50 W m2). Under these circumstances P700 was almost totally oxidized initially and then gradually reduced while energy storage was initially low and then increased parallel to P700 reduction.A comparison between the maximum energy storage in modulated light 1, enhanced by background light 2, to the energy storage with short wavelength light (where light tends to be more evenly distributed) indicates a comparable contribution to energy storage from each active photosystem. The above experiments indicate that energy storage contribution from PS I is directly related to the extent of openness of its reaction-centers.While some aspects of the data call for more experimentation, these experiments already establish PTR as a valuable method to monitor photosynthetic energy storage activity in vivo, particularly when used simultaneously with other non-invasive methods.Abbreviations ES

Photoinhibition and Active Oxygen Species Production in Detached Apple Leaves During Dehydration 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In the course of dehydration, the gas exchange and chlorophyll (Chl) fluorescence were measured under irradiance of 800 mol m–2 s–1 in detached apple leaves, and the production of active oxygen species (AOS), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), superoxide (O2
–), hydroxyl radical (–OH), and singlet oxygen (1O2), were determined. Leaf net photosynthetic rate (P
N) was limited by stomatal and non-stomatal factors at slight (2–3 h dehydration) and moderate (4–5 h dehydration) water deficiency, respectively. Photoinhibition occurred after 3-h dehydration, which was defined by the decrease of photosystem 2 (PS2) non-cyclic electron transport (P-rate). After 2-h dehydration, an obvious rise in H2O2 production was found as a result of photorespiration rise. If photorespiration was inhibited by sodium bisulfite (NaHSO3), the rate of post-irradiation transient increase in Chl fluorescence (Rfp) was enhanced in parallel with a slight decline in P-rate and with an increase in Mehler reaction. At 3-h dehydration, leaf P-rate decrease could be blocked by glycine (Gly) or methyl viologen (MV) pre-treatment, and MV was more effective than Gly at moderate drought time. AOS (H2O2 and O2
–), prior to photoinhibition produced from photorespiration and Mehler reaction in detached apple leaves at slight water deficiency, were important in dissipating photon energy which was excess to the demand of CO2 assimilation. So photoinhibition could be effectively prevented by the way of AOS production. 相似文献

We have examined tobacco transformed with an antisense construct against the Rieske-FeS subunit of the cytochromeb
6
f complex, containing only 15 to 20% of the wild-type level of cytochrome f. The anti-Rieske-FeS leaves had a comparable chlorophyll and Photosystem II reaction center stoichiometry and a comparable carotenoid profile to the wild-type, with differences of less than 10% on a leaf area basis. When exposed to high irradiance, the anti-Rieske-FeS leaves showed a greatly increased closure of Photosystem II and a much reduced capacity to develop non-photochemical quenching compared with wild-type. However, contrary to our expectations, the anti-Rieske-FeS leaves were not more susceptible to photoinhibition than were wild-type leaves. Further, when we regulated the irradiance so that the excitation pressure on photosystem II was equivalent in both the anti-Rieske-FeS and wild-type leaves, the anti-Rieske-FeS leaves experienced much less photoinhibition than wild-type. The evidence from the anti-Rieske-FeS tobacco suggests that rapid photoinactivation of Photosystem II in vivo only occurs when closure of Photosystem II coincides with lumen acidification. These results suggest that the model of photoinhibition in vivo occurring principally because of limitations to electron withdrawal from photosystem II does not explain photoinhibition in these transgenic tobacco leaves, and we need to re-evaluate the twinned concepts of photoinhibition and photoprotection.Abbreviations Chl

The kinetics of the postillumination reduction of P700+ which reflects the rate constant for plastoquinol (PQH2) oxidation was recorded in sunflower leaves at different photon absorption densities (PAD), CO2 and O2 concentrations. The P700 oxidation state was calculated from the leaf transmittance at 830 nm logged at 50 s intervals. The P700+ dark reduction kinetics were fitted with two exponents with time constants of 6.5 and about 45 ms at atmospheric CO2 and O2 concentrations. The time constant of the fast component, which is the major contributor to the linear electron transport rate (ETR), did not change over the range of PADs of 14.5 to 134 nmol cm-2 s-1 in 21% O2, but it increased up to 40 ms under severe limitation of ETR at low O2 and CO2. The acceptor side of Photosystem I (PS I) became reduced in correlation with the downregulation of the PQH2 oxidation rate constant. It is concluded that thylakoid pH-related downregulation of the PQH2 oxidation rate constant (photosynthetic control) is not present under normal atmospheric conditions but appears under severe limitation of the availability of electron acceptors. The measured range of photosynthetic control fits with the maximum variation of ETR under natural stress in C3 plants. Increasing the carboxylase/oxygenase specificity would lead to higher reduction of the PS I acceptor side under stress.Abbreviations Cyt b

Recovery of photoinhibition in intact leaves of shade-grown kiwifruit was followed at temperatures between 10° and 35° C. Photoinhibition was initially induced by exposing the leaves for 240 min to a photon flux density (PFD) of 1 500 mol·m-2·s-1 at 20° C. In additional experiments to determine the effect of extent of photoinhibition on recovery, this period of exposure was varied between 90 and 400 min. The kinetics of recovery were followed by chlorophyll fluorescence at 77K. Recovery was rapid at temperatures of 25–35° and slow or negligible below 20° C. The results reinforce those from earlier studies that indicate chilling-sensitive species are particularly susceptible to photoinhibition at low temperatures because of the low rates of recovery. At all temperatures above 15° C, recovery followed pseudo first-order kinetics. The extent of photoinhibition affected the rate constant for recovery which declined in a linear fashion at all temperatures with increased photoinhibition. However, the extent of photoinhibition had little effect on the temperature-dependency of recovery. An analysis of the fluorescence characteristics indicated that a reduction in non-radiative energy dissipation and repair of damaged reaction centres contributed about equally to the apparent recovery though biochemical studies are needed to confirm this. From an interpretation of the kinetics of photoinhibition, we suggest that recovery occurring during photoinhibition is limited by factors different from those that affect post-photoinhibition recovery.Abbreviations and symbols

High light treatments were given to attached leaves of pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo L.) at room temperature and at 1°C where the diffusion- and enzyme-dependent repair processes of Photosystem II are at a minimum. After treatments, electron transfer activities and fluorescence induction were measured from thylakoids isolated from the treated leaves. When the photoinhibition treatment was given at 1°C, the Photosystem II electron transfer assays that were designed to require electron transfer to the plastoquinone pool showed greater inhibition than electron transfer from H2O to paraphenyl-benzoquinone, which measures all PS II centers. When the light treatment was given at room temperature, electron transfer from H2O to paraphenyl-benzoquinone was inhibited more than whole-chain electron transfer. Variable fluorescence measured in the presence of ferricyanide decreased only during room-temperature treatments. These results suggest that reaction centers of one pool of Photosystem II, non-QB-PS II, replace photoinhibited reaction centers at room temperature, while no replacement occurs at 1°C. A simulation of photoinhibition at 1°C supports this conclusion.Abbreviations BSA

Reversible photoinhibition of unhardened and cold-acclimated spinach leaves at chilling temperatures 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14
The photoinhibition of photosynthesis at chilling temperatures was investigated in cold-acclimated and unhardened (acclimated to +18° C) spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) leaves. In unhardened leaves, reversible photoinhibition caused by exposure to moderate light at +4° C was based on reduced activity of photosystem (PS) II. This is shown by determination of quantum yield and capacity of electron transport in thylakoids isolated subsequent to photoinhibition and recovery treatments. The activity of PSII declined to approximately the same extent as the quantum yield of photosynthesis of photoinhibited leaves whereas PSI activity was only marginally affected. Leaves from plants acclimated to cold either in the field or in a growth chamber (+1° C), were considerably less susceptible to the light treatment. Only relatively high light levels led to photoinhibition, characterized by quenching of variable chlorophyll a fluorescence (FV) and slight inhibition of PSII-driven electron transport. Fluorescence data obtained at 77 K indicated that the photoinhibition of cold-acclimated leaves (like that of the unhardened ones) was related to increased thermal energy dissipation. But in contrast to the unhardened leaves, 77 K fluorescence of cold-acclimated leaves did not reveal a relative increase of PSI excitation. High-light-treated, cold-acclimated leaves showed increased rates of dark respiration and a higher light compensation point. The photoinhibitory fluorescence quenching was fully reversible in low light levels both at +18° C and +4° C; the recovery was much faster than in unhardened leaves. Reversible photoinhibition is discussed as a protective mechanism against excess light based on transformation of PSII reaction centers to fluorescence quenchers.Abbreviations FO

Photoinhibition of Photosynthesis in Broken Chloroplasts as a Function of Electron Transfer Rates during Light Treatment 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Photoinhibition was studied in osmotically broken chloroplasts isolated from spinach leaves (Spinacia oleracea L.). Both whole chain electron transport (measured as ferricyanide-dependent O2 evolution in the presence of NH4Cl) and photosystem II activity (measured as O2 evolution in the presence of either silicomolybdate plus 3-(3,4-diphenyl)-1,1 dimethylurea or parabenzoquinone) showed similar decreases in activity in response to a photoinhibitory treatment (8 minutes of high light given in the absence of an electron acceptor other than O2). Photosystem I activity was less affected. Photoinhibition of silicomolybdate reduction was largely reversible by an 8 minute dark incubation following the light treatment. Decreasing the O2 concentration during photoinhibition below 2% increased photoinhibition of whole chain electron transport. Addition of superoxide dismutase to the reaction medium did not affect photoinhibition. Photoinhibition of both photosystem I and photosystem II activity increased as the rate of electron transfer during the treatment increased, and was largely prevented when 3-(3,4-diphenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea was present during the photoinhibition period. Noncyclic photophosphorylation was decreased as a consequence of whole chain electron transfer photoinhibition. Since diphenyl carbazide added after light treatment did not relieve photoinhibition of dichlorophenol indophenol reduction, we conclude that the site of inhibition is located within or near the photosystem II reaction center. 相似文献

We studied how high light causes photoinhibition of photosystem I (PSI) in the shade-demanding fern Nephrolepis falciformis, in an attempt to understand the mechanism of PSI photoinhibition under natural field conditions. Intact leaves were treated with constant high light and fluctuating light. Detached leaves were treated with constant high light in the presence and absence of methyl viologen (MV). Chlorophyll fluorescence and P700 signal were determined to estimate photoinhibition. PSI was highly oxidized under high light before treatments. N. falciformis showed significantly stronger photoinhibition of PSI and PSII under constant high light than fluctuating light. These results suggest that high levels of P700 oxidation ratio cannot prevent PSI photoinhibition under high light in N. falciformis. Furthermore, photoinhibition of PSI in N. falciformis was largely accelerated in the presence of MV that promotes the production of superoxide anion radicals in the chloroplast stroma by accepting electrons from PSI. From these results, we propose that photoinhibition of PSI in N. falciformis is mainly caused by superoxide radicals generated in the chloroplast stroma, which is different from the mechanism of PSI photoinhibition in Arabidopsis thaliana and spinach. Here, we provide some new insights into the PSI photoinhibition under natural field conditions. 相似文献

The light harvesting and photosynthetic characteristics of a chlorophyll-deficient mutant of cowpea (Vigna unguilata), resulting from a single nuclear gene mutation, are examined. The 40% reduction in total chlorophyll content per leaf area in the mutant is associated with a 55% reduction in pigment-proteins of the light harvesting complex associated with Photosystem II (LHC II), and to a lesser extent (35%) in the light harvesting complex associated with Photosystem I (LHC I). No significant differences were found in the Photosystem I (PS I) and Photosystem II (PS II) contents per leaf area of the mutant compared to the wildtype parent. The decreases in the PS I and PS II antennae sizes in the mutant were not accompanied by any major changes in quantum efficiencies of PS I and PS II in leaves at non-saturating light levels for CO2 assimilation. Although the chlorophyll deficiency resulted in an 11% decrease in light absorption by mutant leaves, their maximum quantum yield and light saturated rate of CO2 assimilation were similar to those of wildtype leaves. Consequently, the large and different decreases in the antennae of PS II and PS I in the mutant are not associated with any loss of light use efficiency in photosynthesis.Abbreviations LHC I, LHC II

The time courses of some Photosystem II (PS II) parameters have been monitored during in-vivo and in-vitro photoinhibition of spinach chloroplasts, at room temperature and at 10 °C or 0 °C. Exposing leaf discs of low-light grown spinach at 25 °C to high light led to photoinhibition of chloroplasts in-vivo as manifested by a parallel decrease in the number of functional PS II centres, the variable chlorophyll fluorescence at 77K (F

), and the number of atrazine-binding sites. When the photoinhibitory treatment was given at 10 °C, the former two parameters declined in parallel but the loss of atrazine-binding sites occurred more slowly and to a lesser extent. During in-vitro photoinhibition of chloroplast thylakoids at 25 °C, the loss of functional PS II centres proceeded slightly more rapidly than the loss of atrazine-binding sites, and this difference in rate was further increased when the thylakoids were photoinhibited at 0 °C. During the recovery phase of leaf discs (up to 9 h) the increases in F

preceded that of the number of functional PS II centres, while only a further decline in the number of atrazine-binding sites was observed. The recovery of variable chlorophyll fluorescence and the concentration of functional PS II centres occurred more rapidly at 25 °C than at 10 °C. These results suggest that the photoinhibition of PS II function is a relatively temperature-independent early photochemical event, whereas the changes in the concentration of herbicide-binding sites appear to be a more complex biochemical process which can occur with a delayed time course.Abbreviations BSA

The yield of photosynthetic O2 evolution was measured in cultures of Dunaliella C9AA over a range of light intensities, and a range of low temperatures at constant light intensity. Changes in the rate of charge separation at Photosystem I (PS I) and Photosystem II (PS II) were estimated by the parameters PS I and PS II . PS I is calculated on the basis of the proportion of centres in the correct redox state for charge separation to occur, as measured spectrophotometrically. PS II is calculated using chlorophyll fluorescence to estimate the proportion of centres in the correct redox state, and also to estimate limitations in excitation delivery to reaction centres. With both increasing light intensity and decreasing temperature it was found that O2 evolution decreased more than predicted by either PS I or PS II. The results are interpreted as evidence of non-assimilatory electron flow; either linear whole chain, or cyclic around each photosystem.Abbreviations F0

A non-detergent photosystem II preparation, named BS, has been characterized by countercurrent distribution, light saturation curves, absorption spectra and fluorescence at room and at low temperature (–196°C). The BS fraction is prepared by a sonication-phase partitioning procedure (Svensson P and Albertsson P-Å, Photosynth Res 20: 249–259, 1989) which removes the stroma lamellae and the margins from the grana and leaves the appressed partition region intact in the form of vesicles. These are closed structures of inside-out conformation. They have a chlorophyll a/b ratio of 1.8–2.0, have a high oxygen evolving capacity (295 mol O2 per mg chl h), are depleted in P700 and enriched in the cytochrome b/f complex. They have about 2 Photosystem II reaction centers per 1 cytochrome b/f complex.The plastoquinone pool available for PS II in the BS vesicles is 6–7 quinones per reaction center, about the same as for the whole thylakoid. It is concluded, therefore, that the plastoquinone of the stroma lamellae is not available to the PS II in the grana and that plastoquinone does not act as a long range electron transport shuttler between the grana and stroma lamellae.Compared with Photosystem II particles prepared by detergent (Triton X-100) treatment, the BS vesicles retain more cytochrome b/f complex and are more homogenous in their surface properties, as revealed by countercurrent distribution, and they have a more efficient energy transfer from the antenna pigments to the reaction center.Abbreviations DCMU
