Analysis Of Photosystem I Donor And Acceptor Sides With A New Type Of Online-Deconvoluting Kinetic Led-Array Spectrophotometer
PLANT AND CELL PHYSIOLOGY(2016)
Abstract
The newly developed Dual/KLAS-NIR spectrophotometer, technical details of which were reported very recently, is used in measuring redox changes of P700, plastocyanin (PC) and ferredoxin (Fd) in intact leaves of Hedera helix, Taxus baccata and Brassica napus. An overview of various light-/ dark-induced changes of deconvoluted P700(+), PC+ and Fd(-) signals is presented demonstrating the wealth of novel information and the consistency of the obtained results. Fd(-) changes are particularly large after dark adaptation. PC oxidation precedes P700(+) oxidation during dark-light induction and in steady-state light response curves. Fd reoxidation during induction correlates with the secondary decline of simultaneously measured fluorescence yield, both of which are eliminated by removal of O-2. By determination of 100% redox changes, relative contents of PC/P700 and Fd/P700 can be assessed, which show considerable variations between different leaves, with a trend to higher values in sun leaves. Based on deconvoluted P700(+) signals, the complementary quantum yields of PSI, Y(I) (photochemical energy use), Y(ND) (non-photochemical loss due to oxidized primary donor) and Y(NA) (non-photochemical loss due to reduced acceptor) are determined as a function of light intensity and compared with the corresponding complementary quantum yields of PSII, Y(II) (photochemical energy use), Y(NPQ) (regulated non-photochemical loss) and Y(NO) (non-regulated non-photochemical loss). The ratio Y(I)/Y(II) increases with increasing intensities. In the low intensity range, a twostep increase of PC+ is indicative of heterogeneous PC pools.
