Journal ArticleDOI
Algae and UV irradiation: effects on ultrastructure and related metabolic functions.
Andreas Holzinger,Cornelius Lütz +1 more
TL;DR: A broad overview on UV effects on algae is given, with a focus on structurally visible changes and destruction in chloroplasts, mitochondria, and the occurrence of structures that are likely to be related to the UV stress.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photodamage of the Photosynthetic Apparatus and Its Dependence on the Leaf Developmental Stage in the npq1 Arabidopsis Mutant Deficient in the Xanthophyll Cycle Enzyme Violaxanthin De-epoxidase
TL;DR: The results confirm that the xanthophyll cycle protects chloroplasts from photooxidation by a mechanism distinct from non-photochemical energy quenching and they reveal that the absence of xanthoptera cycle can be compensated by other protective mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Salt stress-induced cell death in the unicellular green alga Micrasterias denticulata.
TL;DR: In this paper, morphological, biochemical, and physiological responses of the theoretically immortal unicellular freshwater green alga Micrasterias denticulata were examined after salt (200 mM NaCl or 200 mM KCl) and osmotic stress induced by iso-osmotic sorbitol.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photosynthesis, pigments and ultrastructure of the alpine snow alga Chlamydomonas nivalis
TL;DR: Temperature and light-dependence of photosynthesis, and plastid and extraplastid red pigment composition of red snow algae (Chlamydomonas nivalis) from snow patches in the high Alps of Austria are studied to support the cryophilic adaptation of snow algal cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
The vegetative arctic freshwater green alga Zygnema is insensitive to experimental UV exposure.
TL;DR: Zygnema is well adapted to ambient solar radiation, enabling the alga to cope with experimental UV exposure and it is expected to persist in a scenario with enhanced UV radiation caused by stratospheric ozone depletion.
