Abstract excerpt
Light is crucial for photosynthesis, but the amount of light that exceeds an organism's assimilation efficacy can lead to photo-oxidative damage and even cell death. In Chlamydomonas (C). reinhardtii cyclic electron flow (CEF) is very important for the elicitation of non-photochemical quenching (NPQ) by controlling the acidification of thylakoid lumen. This process requires the cooperation of proton gradient...
