The aim of this monograph is to highlight various mechanisms
followed by plants to overcome the high light stress and
photoinhibition, and also the plant responses to low light levels.
Emphasis has been on the regulation of light harvesting process,
the avoidance phenomena at leaf and chloroplast levels and the
strategy followed by certa in solar tracking plants in maximizing
the light interception without photoinhibitory damage, leading to
improvement of diurnal photosynthetic rate. Plant adjustment to
light variations over a long term, through the acclimation process
brought about by changes in gene function and specific
reconstruction of chloroplast has also been discussed. Although the
emphasis has been on higher plant systems, green algae and
cyanobacterial examples are used wherever appropriate. This book
will be a useful reference to advanced postgraduate students,
research scientists and teachers interested in the area of
photosynthesis research.
