"Photoprotection, Photoinhibition,
Gene Regulation, and Environment" examines the processes whereby plants monitor
environmental conditions and orchestrate their response to change, an ability
paramount to the life of all plants. "Excess light", absorbed by the
light-harvesting systems of photosynthetic organisms, is an integrative
indicator of the environment, communicating the presence of intense light and
any conditions unfavorable for growth and photosynthesis. Key plant responses
are photoprotection and photoinhibition.
In this volume, the dual role of photoprotective
responses in the preservation of leaf integrity and in redox
signaling networks modulating stress acclimation, growth, and development is
addressed. In addition, the still unresolved impact of photoinhibition
on plant survival and productivity is discussed. Specific topics include
dissipation of excess energy via thermal and other pathways, scavenging of
reactive oxygen by antioxidants, proteins key to photoprotection
and photoinhibition, peroxidation
of lipids, as well as signaling by reactive oxygen, lipid-derived messengers,
and other messengers that modulate gene expression. Approaches include
biochemical, physiological, genetic, molecular, and field studies, addressing
intense visible and ultraviolet light, winter conditions, nutrient deficiency,
drought, and salinity. This book is directed toward advanced undergraduate
students, graduate students, and researchers interested in Plant Ecology,
Stress Physiology, Plant Biochemistry, Integrative Biology, and Photobiology.
