A simple indicator for non-destructive estimation of the violaxanthin cycle pigment content in leaves.

Photosynthesis research - 1 May 2016

Nichelmann Lars, Schulze Matthias, Herppich Werner B, Bilger Wolfgang

Abstract excerpt

The photosynthetic apparatus of higher plants acclimates to irradiance. Among the features which are changing is the pool size of the pigments belonging to the violaxanthin cycle, in which zeaxanthin is formed. In high light grown leaves, the violaxanthin cycle pool size is up to five times larger than in low light. The changes are reversible on a time scale of several days. Since it has been published that...
