how plants defend against high light:

Photoprotection visualised

The CambPlants Hub presents work from the Kromdijk Lab, located in the Department of Plant Sciences at the University of Cambridge. This is a condensed version of the work that was to be presented at Cambridge Science Festival in March 2020.

In this video researchers from the Kromdijk Lab explore how plants are affected by and respond to high light, which can damage the photosynthetic machinery. They visualise the down-regulation of light harvesting in real time using a fluorescence imager.
