The decline in photosynthetic rate upon transfer from high to low light is linked to the slow kinetics of chloroplast ATP synthase in Bletilla striata.

abstract：:Phycobilisomes, comprised of both chromophoric (phycobiliproteins) and non-chromophoric (linker polypeptides) proteins, are light-harvesting complexes present in the prokaryotic cyanobacteria and the eukaryotic red algae. Many cyanobacteria exhibit complementary chromatic adaptation, a process which enables these orga...
