The fluorescence kinetics of both intact needles and isolated chloroplasts of summer active and winter stressed Pinus sylvestris were measured at both room temperature and 77 K. It was confirmed that winter stress inhibited the photochemical capacity of photosystem II but also that winter stress
As shown before [C. Ottander et al. (1995) Planta 197:176-183], there is a severe inhibition of the photosystem (PS) II photochemical efficiency of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) during the winter. In contrast, the in vivo PSI photochemistry is less inhibited during winter as shown by in vivo
Stressors of different natures, including drought stress, substantially compromise the ability of plants to effectively and safely utilize light energy. We investigated the influence of water stress on the photosynthetic processes in Picea abies and Pinus sylvestris, two species with contrasting
In Arabidopsis thaliana, the main route of cyclic electron transport around PSI is sensitive to antimycin A, but the site of inhibition has not been clarified. We discovered that ferredoxin-dependent plastoquinone reduction in ruptured chloroplasts was less sensitive to antimycin A in Arabidopsis
