Faster photosynthetic induction in tobacco by expressing cyanobacterial flavodiiron proteins in chloroplasts
Plants grown in the field experience sharp changes in irradiation due to shading effects caused by clouds, other leaves, etc. The excess of absorbed light energy is dissipated by a number of mechanisms including cyclic electron transport, photorespiration, and Mehler-type reactions. This protection...
