Evidence for the Involvement of Electrical, Calcium and ROS Signaling in the Systemic Regulation of Non-Photochemical Quenching and Photosynthesis

Description: Article presents study in which pulse amplitude-modulated Chl fluorescence imaging and surface electrical potential measurements accompanied by pharmacological treatments were employed to study stimuli-induced electrical signals in leaves from a broad range of plant species and in Arabidopsis thaliana mutants.
