TLDR
The Xanthophyll cycle and thermal energy dissipation were investigated in this paper. But the results of these experiments were limited to the case of light-capturing systems, where active oxygen was not formed in the Photochemical Apparatus.Abstract:

Biosynthesis of Thylakoid Membrane Lipids
Roland Douce,Jacques Joyard +1 more
TL;DR: This chapter describes the present understanding of the structure of these lipids and their distribution within chloroplasts, of the biosynthetic pathway for glycerolipids, pigments and prenylquinones and of the biochemical properties of the enzymes involved.

Virus-induced silencing of genes encoding LEA protein in Tibetan hulless barley (Hordeum vulgare ssp. vulgare) and their relationship to drought tolerance
Junjun Liang,Guangbing Deng,Hai Long,Zhifen Pan,Chun-Ping Wang,Peng Cai,Peng Cai,Deling Xu,Zha-Xi Nima,Maoqun Yu +9 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that HVA1 might play a role in vegetative growth of Tibetan hulless barley through the influence of two LEA genes (HVA1 and Dhn6) on drought tolerance of Tibetans.

Heat Stress Adaptation in Elite Lines Derived from Synthetic Hexaploid Wheat
TL;DR: Physiological traits related to heat tolerance included higher crop growth rate, increased water-soluble carbohydrates storage in stems, cooler canopy temperature, and spectral indices which enabled a larger number of grains to be set, in addition to growth of taller stems with a greater WSC storage capacity.

Comparative physiological responses and adaptive strategies of apple Malus halliana to salt, alkali and saline-alkali stress
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the physiological adaptive mechanisms of Malus halliana Koehne (M. halliana) involved in the responce to three different stress factors, i.e., salt stress, alkali stress and saline-alkali stress.

Responses of the Photosynthetic Electron Transport Reactions Stimulate the Oxidation of the Reaction Center Chlorophyll of Photosystem I, P700, under Drought and High Temperatures in Rice.
TL;DR: Results indicate that the drought stress responses of the respective PET reactions are closely associated with each other in the oxidization of P700 and that such responses are stimulated at high temperatures.

The relationship between the quantum yield of photosynthetic electron transport and quenching of chlorophyll fluorescence
TL;DR: In this article, the quantum yield of non-cyclic electron transport was found to be directly proportional to the product of the photochemical fluorescence quenching (qQ) and the efficiency of excitation capture by open Photosystem II (PS II) reaction centres (Fv/Fm).

Photon yield of O2 evolution and chlorophyll fluorescence characteristics at 77 K among vascular plants of diverse origins.
Olle Björkman,Barbara Demmig +1 more
TL;DR: Determinations of the photon yield of O2 evolution and the Fv/FM, 692 ratio can serve as excellent quantitative measures of photoinhibition of overall photosynthetic energy-conversion system and of photochemistry of photosystem II, respectively.

Plant Responses to Multiple Environmental FactorsPhysiological ecology provides tools for studying how interacting environmental resources control plant growth
TL;DR: Plant growth in diverse environments requires a similar balance of resources-energy, water, and mineral nutrients-to maintain optimal growth, but these resources differ by at least two orders of magnitude in the availability.

Comparison of the effect of excessive light on chlorophyll fluorescence (77K) and photon yield of O2 evolution in leaves of higher plants.
Barbara Demmig,Olle Björkman +1 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that high-light treatments can have at least two different, concurrent effects on 77K fluorescence in leaves, one results from damage to the photosystem II (PSII) reaction-center complex and leads to a rise in FO, 692; the other results from an increased non-radiative energy dissipation in the pigment bed.
Photoinhibition and zeaxanthin formation in intact leaves. A possible role of the xanthophyll cycle in the dissipation of excess light energy. [Populus balsamifera; Hedera; helix; Monstrosa deliciosa]
TL;DR: Comparative studies of chlorophyll a fluorescence and of the pigment composition of leaves suggest a specific role of zeaxanthin, a carotenoid formed in the xanthophyll cycle, in protecting the photosynthetic apparatus against the adverse effects of excessive light.
