Abstract	Influences of UV-B radiation on Rhizophora apiculata were studied in terms of chlorophylls, their presence in protein complexes of the chloroplast, PS I and PS II photochemical activities, in vitro absorption spectrum of the chloroplast, in vivo leaf fluorescence and UV absorbing compounds. The seedlings were exposed to the various levels of UV-B radiations, equivalent to 0 (control), 10, 20, 30 and 40% stratospheric ozone depletion of the study area. The low doses of UV-B (10 and 20%) increased the reaction centre chlorophyll (10 and 8%) and activities of PS-I (98 and 39%) and PS-II (77 and 38%) respectively; whereas, 30 and 40% UV-B treatments decreased the reaction centre chlorophylls by 11 and 33% and PS II activity by 0 and 20%; while PS I activity did not show any inhibitory effect. Chloroplasts isolated from control and 10% UV-B treated plants exhibited the same level of absorption at 676 nm. In vivo leaf fluorescence was found to be diminished with UV-B radiation and at the 10% UV-B, variable fluorescence was promoted significantly by 10%. The content of UV-absorbing compounds was progressively enhanced with doses of UV-B radiation along with higher absorption at 276 and 330 nm.
