Abstract excerpt
The role of digalactosyldiacylglycerol (DGDG) for the functional competence of photosystem II (PS II) has been analyzed in leaves of Arabidopsis thaliana plants where the lipid composition was selectively modified by genetic mutations. Measurements with a newly developed laser flash fluorometer and data evaluation within the framework of an extended "3-quencher" model lead to the following results: (i) the...
