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.

The sun-exposed peel of apple fruit has higher xanthophyll cycle-dependent thermal dissipation and antioxidants of the ascorbate–glutathione pathway than the shaded peel

TL;DR: Both the xanthophyll cycle and the ascorbate–glutathione pathway in the apple fruit peel are acclimated to the prevailing light exposure within the tree canopy to meet the respective needs for dissipating excess absorbed PFD and detoxifying reactive oxygen species.

Changes in oxidative stress defense system in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and mung bean (Vigna radiata L.) cultivars grown with and without mineral nutrients and irradiated by supplemental ultraviolet-B

TL;DR: Results showed decrease in photosynthetic pigments and biomass of all the four cultivars due to sUV-B radiation, and Antioxidative defense system was activated in all the cultivars after irradiation with s UV-B.

Chloroplast Movement in the Shade Plant Tradescantia albiflora Helps Protect Photosystem II against Light Stress

TL;DR: It is suggested that the greater tolerance of PSII against light stress in T. albiflora may be partly ascribed to its light-induced chloroplast rearrangement, because these two parameters were comparable in both plants.

A zeaxanthin-independent nonphotochemical quenching mechanism localized in the photosystem II core complex

TL;DR: Reaction-center quenching seems to be a common transient feature during illumination, being replaced by other phenomena (photochemical or antenna quenched and photoinhibition), depending on the balance between light and carbon fixation fluxes.

ELIPs – Light‐induced stress proteins

TL;DR: Data indicate that ELIPs might represent unique chlorophyll-binding proteins which have a transient function(s) during light stress, and a transient 'pigment-carrier function is postulated for ELips.

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.

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.

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.
