The reaction in which harmful reactive oxygen species are created during plant photosynthesis has been clarified, and along with it, the mechanism behind plant withering. This discovery could help to ...
When plants absorb excess light energy during photosynthesis, reactive oxygen species are produced, potentially causing oxidative stress that damages important structures. Plants can suppress the ...
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a key role in the regulation of many developmental processes, including senescence, and in plant responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. Several mechanisms of ROS ...
In the centre of the photosystem II (left), four manganese atoms (purple), five oxygen atoms (red) and one calcium atom (green) form the oxygen-evolving complex. The cluster (right) contains only five ...
Its presence helps plants to tolerate environmental pressures like drought — and it could help create crops that can better withstand adverse conditions. Plants rely on structures called chloroplasts ...
The ability of phototrophs to convert light into biological energy is critical for life on Earth. However, there can be deleterious consequences associated with this bioenergetic conversion, including ...
