Action of UV‐B radiation on photosynthetic primary reactions in spinach chloroplasts

Abstract

Spinach (Spinacia oleracea L. cv. Matador) chloroplasts were irradiated with several levels of UV‐B radiation. Measurements which reflect characteristic steps of photosynthetic electron transport were made to localize the site of impairment of photosynthesis by UV‐B radiation. Variable fluorescence, the μs‐kinetics of the 320 nm absorption changes and also oxygen evolution were substantially reduced in chloroplasts irradiated with UV‐B. It was not possible to restore the amplitude of the 320 nm absorption changes nor the signal of the transmembrane electric field measured at 520 nm by adding the photo‐system II donor couple hydroquinone/ascorbate to UV‐B treated chloroplast samples. This indicates that impairment of photosystem II activity is not caused by selective inhibition of the water‐splitting enzyme system Y, but rather is due to blockage of photosystem II reaction centers. Photosystem 1 is inferred to be highly resistant to UV‐B radiation. These results suggest that the reaction centers of photosystem II are transformed into dissipative sinks for excitation energy by action of UV‐B radiation.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
