| Abstract | Nicotiana tabacum L. wild-type plants and transformants (ΔndhCKJ), deficient in functional NAD(P)H dehydrogenase (NDH), were subjected to high light at 20 °C and 4 °C for 2 h to examine a possible role of NDH-mediated cyclic electron flow in protecting photosystems I and II from photoinhibition. Photochemical activity of photosystem I (PSI) was assessed by means of P700 absorbance changes at 810 nm. In addition, potential photosystem II (PSII) efficiency was determined by measuring the 'dark-adapted' ratio of variable to maximum chlorophyll fluorescence, F v/F m. Both photosystems were more susceptible to photoinhibition at 4 °C than at 20 °C. However, the degree of photoinhibition was not less in the wild type than in the NDH-deficient plants. To evaluate the efficiency of P700 oxidation in far-red light, a saturation constant, K s, was determined, representing the far-red irradiance at which half of the maximum P700 absorbance change was reached. In photoinhibited leaves, a decrease in the efficiency of P700 oxidation (increase in K s) was observed. The increase in K s was more pronounced at 4 °C than at 20 °C, but not significantly different between wild-type and ΔndhCKJ plants. Re-reduction kinetics of oxidised P700 in the dark were accelerated to a similar extent in photoinhibited samples of both genotypes and at the two temperatures tested. The data indicate that NDH-mediated cyclic electron flow does not protect PSI against short-term light stress. It is proposed that the observed increase in K s represents a protective mechanism that is based on accelerated charge recombination in PSI and facilitates thermal dissipation of excessive light energy. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
