Abstract excerpt
Cyanobacteria, algae and plants reduce photosystem contents and modulate photosystem stoichiometry upon acclimation to high-light (HL) conditions to avoid the damage due to excess light energy. In order to elucidate the molecular mechanism of HL acclimation, mRNA levels of genes encoding subunits of photosystems were examined in response to change of photon flux density in the wild-type strain of Synechocystis...
