The lipids of photosystem II particles, of chloroplasts and leaves are compared in the variegated tobacco mutant N C 95. The mutant differs from other N. tabacum mutants by the phenomenon that it has variegated leaves with green and with yellow-green leaf patches. Chloroplasts from the green leaf areas exhibit photosystem II and photosystem I reactions and have a normal lamellar system with gra...

Marine diatoms are photosynthetic, and thrive in environments where light fluctuates. Like all oxygenic photosynthetic organisms diatoms face a light-dependent inactivation of the Photosystem II complexes that photooxidize water to generate biosynthetic reductant. To maintain photosynthesis this photoinactivation must be countered by slow and metabolically expensive protein turnover, which is l...

The aim of this study is to evaluate the  effects of water deficit stress on chlorophyll fluorescence (CF) characteristics of photosystem II (PSII) and pigment contents in two rootstock seedlings (Pistacia atlantica L. and P. khinjuk L.). Three levels of soil water potential (Ψs) was used, including WWD (-0.05 MPa), MWD (-0.7 MPa) and SWD (-1.5 MPa). It was found that water stress increased the...

Alkaline pH is one of the most important problems of our aquatic habitat. We used Stigonematalean native cyanobacterium Fischerella sp. FS 18 as our model strain, andstudied it under different alkaline pHs (7, 9 and rarely 11) under two different – short and long- time treatments (24 and 96 hours after inoculation). Spectroscopic results showed that both alkalinity and time affected growth rate...

Oxidative stress is commonly induced when plants are grown under drought stress conditions.To analyze how salicylic acid (SA) can partly alleviate drought-induced oxidative stress and negative impacts of drought on physiology and growth of Salvia nemorosa plants, we investigated the physiological responses of S. nemorosa to SA application under drought stress. The treatments were composed of Co...

Abstract In vitro cultivation is a technique with wide application for micropropagation. However, each species has specific mineral needs this type of cultivation. The objective was to assess the impacts saline solution culture medium on performance photosynthetic apparatus and growth Bromelia antiacantha during in cultivation, thus elucidate mitigation nutritional imbalance that can interfere ...

Fractions enriched in Photosystem 1 or Photosystem 2 activity have been isolated from the cyanobacterium Chlorogloea fritschii after extraction of the membranes with digitonin and Triton X-100. Separation of the extract into the two components was achieved by using a Sepharose 6B column, calibration of which gave Kd values of 0.3 for the Photosystem 1 fraction and 0.53 for Photosystem 2. These ...

background heat is a harmful factor in workplaces that causes physiologic and cognitive changes in workers. objectives the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of cooling vest on heat strain and reaction time while wearing chemical-biological-nuclear protective clothes. methods twelve male students with mean age of 25 ± 2 and body mass index (bmi) of 23 ± 1.5 were recruited in th...
