Photosynthetic reaction center (pRC) purified from Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.1 purple bacteria was deposited on a graphene carrier exfoliated from the liquid phase and layered on the surface of SiO2/Si substrate for optoelectronic application. Light-induced changes in the drain-source current vs. gate voltage are demonstrated. Dried photosynthetic reaction centers/graphene composite on SiO2/Si shows a photochemical/-physical activity, as a result of interaction with the current flow in the graphene carrier matrix. The current changes are sensitive to light, due to the contribution from the charge separation in the pRC, and to the applied gate and drain-source voltages.

To evaluate the Ca-alleviating effect on sodium salt-induced phytotoxicity, wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivar Xihan 3 seedlings were treated with 150 mM NaCl, CaCl2 (0.1, 0.5, and 1 mM), Ca2+-channel blocker LaCl3, and/or Ca2+ chelator, ethylene glycol tetraacetic acid (EGTA) alone or in combination, to investigate seedling growth and photosynthetic characteristics. NaCl (150 mM) exposure alone suppressed a growth of seedling, weakened photosynthetic efficiency and chlorophyll (Chl) fluorescence parameters, reduced photosynthetic pigments, Ca2+ and calmodulin (CaM) contents, and downregulated TaCaM expression in wheat leaves. The opposite changes of these parameters were caused by 0.5 or 1 mM CaCl2 treatments alone. Moreover, 0.5 or 1 mM CaCl2 application effectively alleviated sodium salt-induced changes of these parameters, which was blocked by LaCl3 or EGTA. Therefore, exogenous Ca presence effectively promoted the growth of NaCl-stressed wheat seedlings through the enhancement of photosynthesis and Chl synthesis mediated by the Ca-CaM signal.
为评价小麦(Triticum aestivum L.)西寒3号(Triticum aestivum L.)幼苗在150 mM NaCl、CaCl2(0.1、0.5和1 mM)、Ca2+通道阻滞剂LaCl3和/或Ca2+螯合剂乙二醇四乙酸(EGTA)单独或联合处理下对钠盐诱导的植物毒性的缓解作用，研究幼苗的生长和光合特性。单独NaCl (150 mM)处理抑制了小麦幼苗的生长，降低了光合效率和叶绿素荧光参数，降低了光合色素、Ca2+和钙调素(CaM)含量，下调了叶片中TaCaM的表达。单独处理0.5 mM或1 mM CaCl2会引起这些参数相反的变化。此外，0.5或1 mM CaCl2可有效缓解钠盐引起的这些参数的变化，而这些变化被LaCl3或EGTA阻断。因此，外源Ca的存在通过Ca- cam信号介导的光合作用和Chl合成的增强，有效促进了nacl胁迫下小麦幼苗的生长。

Photosynthesis is extremely sensitive to drought and decreases due to co-occurring stomatal, mesophyll, and biochemical limitations. Few studies have shown the effects of a drought cycle (drought-rewatering) on photosynthesis and water-use efficiency (WUE) in cotton. Here, the dynamics of photosynthesis in upland (Gossypium hirsutum) and pima (G. barbadense) cotton were analyzed during a drought cycle. While both species decreased net CO2 assimilation rate (PN) to a similar extent under drought, in pima cotton rewatering rapidly restored PN, the stomatal conductance (gs), the maximum carboxylation rate (Vcmax), and the maximum electron transport rate above the control level. Meanwhile, the response of leaf intrinsic WUE (WUEi) to drought and recovery was different between the two cotton species, which was mainly co-regulated by Vcmax and gs. In conclusion, pima and upland cotton exhibit different response patterns of PN and WUEi during the whole process of drought and recovery.

Common periwinkle (Catharanthus roseus L.) is an important medicinal plant used by the pharmaceutical industry. The present work aimed to determine the effect of low light intensity on the primary and secondary metabolic processes, using various photosynthesis and targeted and untargeted analytical techniques. Growth light had only limited effects on the photosynthetic electron transport processes, although membrane stability seemed slightly higher in plants growing under higher light conditions. The reduced growth light caused a reduction in certain primary metabolites, including amino acids and sugars, and it also reduced the contents of most of the phenolic compounds investigated in the present experiments. Interestingly, the differences in the growth light caused a much less pronounced difference in the alkaloid contents than that found in the flavonoid contents. However, besides the growth light, genotypic differences, most evident in flower colour, also affected some metabolic processes, including primary and secondary processes.

Thylakoid membranes are energy-converting membranes with a unique lipid composition. Though the membranes are primarily composed of proteins, their photosynthetic function is strongly influenced by the lipid constituents. Here we characterize, with molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, lipid bilayers with compositions representative of plant thylakoid membranes. We determine, in a wide range of temperatures, the physical parameters of the model membranes which are relevant for the photosynthetic function. We found a marked impact of temperature on membrane permeability due to a combination of increased compressibility and curvature of the membrane at elevated temperatures. With increasing temperatures, we observed increasingly smeared transmembrane density profiles of the membrane forming lipid headgroups predicting increased membrane flexibility. The diffusion coefficient of the lipids increased with temperature without apparent specificity for lipid species. Instead of a comprehensive experimental dataset in the relevant temperature range, we quantitatively compared and validated our MD results with MD simulations on a dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine model system.
