Photo-protective functions were investigated in phytoplankton assemblages at Kongsfjorden, Svalbard in spring, using their UV-absorbing compounds (mycosporine-like amino acids (MAAs)), xanthophyllpigments (diadin...
Transgenic tobacco plants (M51-1) constitutively over-expressing a modified gene for the proline biosynthetic enzyme △2-pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthetase (P5CSF129A) and the corresponding wild-type plants (WT) were ...
When light absorbed by plants exceeds the capacity of photosynthesis, the xanthophyll violaxanthin is reversibly de-epoxidized to zeaxanthin in the so-called xanthophyll cycle. Zeaxanthin plays a key role in the prote...
Relationships between D1 protein, xanthophyll cycle and subspecific difference of photodamage-resistant capacity have been studied in O. japonica rice varieties 02428 and 029 (photoinhibition-tolerance) and O. indica ...
The electroanalytical behaviour of xanthophyll was studied by differential pulse polarography and cyclic voltammetry.The reduction wave of xanthophyll at -0.92V(v.s.Ag/AgCl)in 1.25% tetrabutyl ammonium chloride soluti...
