This project investigates the molecular mechanisms of photoprotection in plants, focusing on how they manage excess light stress. By studying the model plant Arabidopsis and the Norway spruce, the research aims to enhance energy capture and utilization, potentially improving crop yields.
Photosynthesis is a biological process of primary importance, as it provides the energy that drives food, feedstock and biofuel production and mitigates climate change.
Light in excess of photosynthetic capacity can be damaging, thus ways to protect against damage have evolved, including ways to minimize light absorption, detoxify reactive oxygen species generated by excess light, and dissipate excess absorbed light.
Together, these processes are known as photoprotection.
