Abstract

The ndhB(-) and psaE(-) mutants of the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 are partly deficient in PSI-driven cyclic electron transport. We compared photoinhibition in these mutants to the wild type to test the hypothesis that PSI cyclic electron transport protects against photoinhibition. Pho...
