Abstract
The results of a comparative study of electron transport in chloroplasts in situ in the leaves of shade-tolerant and light-loving tradescantia species (T. fluminensis and T. sillamontana) grown under conditions of strong (800−1000 μmole m–2 s–1of photons) or weak (moderate) illumination (50−125 μmole m–2 s–1of photons) are described. Electron transport processes were monitored using the methods of electron paramagnetic resonance and optical spectroscopy. The photoinduced redox transformations of the primary electron donor of photosystem I (P700) and the slow induction of chlorophyll a fluorescence were studied. It has been shown that plants acclimated to high light intensity are characterized by faster processes of P700 oxidation and chlorophyll a fluorescence attenuation compared to plants grown at low light intensity. The data obtained are analyzed in the context of “short-term” mechanisms of pH-dependent regulation of electron transport in intact chloroplasts (non-photochemical quenching of excitation in photosystem II, slowing down the oxidation of plastoquinol by cytochrome b6f complex, and activation of Calvin−Benson cycle reactions).

期刊介绍:
Biophysics is a multidisciplinary international peer reviewed journal that covers a wide scope of problems related to the main physical mechanisms of processes taking place at different organization levels in biosystems. It includes structure and dynamics of macromolecules, cells and tissues; the influence of environment; energy transformation and transfer; thermodynamics; biological motility; population dynamics and cell differentiation modeling; biomechanics and tissue rheology; nonlinear phenomena, mathematical and cybernetics modeling of complex systems; and computational biology. The journal publishes short communications devoted and review articles.
