Abstract
Lipid peroxidation is a primary event associated with oxidative stress in plants. This phenomenon secondarily generates bioactive and/or toxic compounds such as reactive carbonyl species (RCS), phytoprostanes, and phytofurans, as confirmed here in Arabidopsis plants exposed to photo-oxidative stress conditions. We analyzed the effects of exogenous applications of secondary lipid oxidation products on Arabidopsis plants by luminescence techniques. Oxidative damage to attached leaves was measured by autoluminescence imaging, using a highly sensitive CCD camera, and the activity of the detoxification pathway, dependent on the transcription regulator SCARECROW-LIKE 14 (SCL14), was monitored with a bioluminescent line expressing the firefly LUCIFERASE (LUC) gene under the control of the ALKENAL REDUCTASE (AER) gene promoter. We identified 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE), and to a lesser extent 4-hydroxyhexenal (HHE), as highly reactive compounds that are harmful to leaves and can trigger AER gene expression, contrary to other RCS (pentenal, hexenal) and to isoprostanoids. Although the levels of HNE and other RCS were enhanced in the SCL14-deficient mutant (scl14), exogenously applied HNE was similarly damaging to this mutant, its wild-type parent and a SCL14-overexpressing transgenic line (OE:SCL14). However, strongly boosting the SCL14 detoxification pathway and AER expression by a pre-treatment of OE:SCL14 with the signaling apocarotenoid β-cyclocitral canceled the damaging effects of HNE. Conversely, in the scl14 mutant, the effects of β-cyclocitral and HNE were additive, leading to enhanced leaf damage. These results indicate that the cellular detoxification pathway induced by the low-toxicity β-cyclocitral targets highly toxic compounds produced during lipid peroxidation, reminiscent of a safener-type mode of action.

[PMID: 33314124 DOI: 10.1111/ppl.13317] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2020] [Revised: 12/01/2020] [Accepted: 12/09/2020] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
The so-called afterglow, AG, thermoluminescence (TL) band is a useful indicator of the presence of cyclic electron flow (CEF), which is mediated by the NADH dehydrogenase-like (NDH) complex in higher plants. Although NDH-dependent CEF occurs also in cyanobacteria, the AG band has previously not been found in these organisms. In the present study, we tested various experimental conditions and could identify a TL component with ca. +40°C peak temperature in Synechocystis PCC 6803 cells, which were illuminated by far-red (FR) light at around -10°C. The +40°C band could be observed when WT cells were grown under ambient air level CO2 , but was absent in the M55 mutant, which is deficient in the NDH-1 complex. These experimental observations match the characteristics of the AG band of higher plants. Therefore, we conclude that the newly identified +40°C TL component in Synechocystis PCC 6803 is the cyanobacterial counterpart of the plant AG band and originates from NDH-1-mediated CEF. The cyanobacterial AG band was most efficiently induced when FR illumination was applied at -10°C and its contribution to the total TL intensity declined when cells were illuminated above and below this temperature. Based on this phenomenon we also conclude that CEF is blocked by low temperatures at two different sites in Synechocystis PCC 6803: (1) Below -10°C at the level of NDH-1 and (2) below -30°C at the donor or acceptor side of Photosystem I.

Abstract
The afterglow (AG) photosynthetic luminescence is a long-lived chlorophyll fluorescence emitted from PSII after the illumination of photosynthetic materials by FR or white light and placed in darkness. The AG emission corresponds to the fraction of PSII centers in the S2/3 QB non-radiative state immediately after pre-illumination, in which the arrival of an electron transferred from stroma along cyclic/chlororespiratory pathway(s) produces the S2/3 QB - radiative state that emits luminescence. This emission can be optimally recorded by a linear temperature gradient as sharp thermoluminescence (TL) band peaking at about 45°C. The AG emission recorded by TL technique has been proposed as a simple non-invasive tool to investigate the chloroplast energetic state and some of its metabolism processes as cyclic transport of electrons around PSI, chlororespiration or photorespiration. On the other hand, this emission has demonstrated to be a useful probe to study the effect of various stress conditions in photosynthetic materials.

PHYSIOLOGIA PLANTARUM 2019; 166:240-250. [PMID: 30628087 DOI: 10.1111/ppl.12916] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2018] [Revised: 12/12/2018] [Accepted: 12/18/2018] [Indexed: 06/09/2023]
Abstract
The afterglow (AG) luminescence is a delayed chlorophyll fluorescence emitted by the photosystem II that seems to reflect the level of assimilatory potential (NADPH+ATP) in chloroplast. In this work, the thermoluminescence (TL) emissions corresponding to the AG band were investigated in plants of the WT and the Ljgln2-2 photorespiratory mutant from Lotus japonicus grown under either photorespiratory (air) or non-photorespiratory (high concentration of CO2 ) conditions. TL glow curves obtained after two flashes induced the strongest overall TL emissions, which could be decomposed in two components: B band (tmax = 27-29°C) and AG band (tmax = 44-45°C). Under photorespiratory conditions, WT plants showed a ratio of 1.17 between the intensity of the AG and B bands (IAG /IB ). This ratio increased considerably under non-photorespiratory conditions (2.12). In contrast, mutant Ljgln2-2 plants grown under both conditions showed a high IAG /IB ratio, similar to that of WT plants grown under non-photorespiratory conditions. In addition, high temperature thermoluminescence (HTL) emissions associated to lipid peroxidation were also recorded. WT and Ljgln2-2 mutant plants grown under photorespiratory conditions showed both a significant HTL band, which increased significantly under non-photorespiratory conditions. The results of this work indicate that changes in the amplitude of IAG /IB ratio could be used as an in vivo indicator of alteration in the level of photorespiratory metabolism in L. japonicus chloroplasts. Moreover, the HTL results suggest that photorespiration plays some role in the protection of the chloroplast against lipid peroxidation.

Abstract
Thermally stimulated luminescence (TSL) is known as a technique used in radiation dosimetry and dating. However, since the luminescence is very sensitive to the defects in a solid, it can also be used in material research. In this review, it is shown how TSL can be used as a research tool to investigate luminescent characteristics and underlying luminescent mechanisms. First, some basic characteristics and a theoretical background of the phenomenon are given. Next, methods and difficulties in extracting trapping parameters are addressed. Then, the instrumentation needed to measure the luminescence, both as a function of temperature and wavelength, is described. Finally, a series of very diverse examples is given to illustrate how TSL has been used in the determination of energy levels of defects, in the research of persistent luminescence phosphors, and in phenomena like band gap engineering, tunnelling, photosynthesis, and thermal quenching. It is concluded that in the field of luminescence spectroscopy, thermally stimulated luminescence has proven to be an experimental technique with unique properties to study defects in solids.

Iron Deficiency Induces a Partial Inhibition of the Photosynthetic Electron Transport and a High Sensitivity to Light in the Diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum. FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2016; 7:1050.

Abstract
Iron limitation is the major factor controlling phytoplankton growth in vast regions of the contemporary oceans. In this study, a combination of thermoluminescence (TL), chlorophyll fluorescence, and P700 absorbance measurements have been used to elucidate the effects of iron deficiency in the photosynthetic electron transport of the marine diatom P. tricornutum. TL was used to determine the effects of iron deficiency on photosystem II (PSII) activity. Excitation of iron-replete P. tricornutum cells with single turn-over flashes induced the appearance of TL glow curves with two components with different peaks of temperature and contributions to the total signal intensity: the B band (23°C, 63%), and the AG band (40°C, 37%). Iron limitation did not significantly alter these bands, but induced a decrease of the total TL signal. Far red excitation did not increase the amount of the AG band in iron-limited cells, as observed for iron-replete cells. The effect of iron deficiency on the photosystem I (PSI) activity was also examined by measuring the changes in P700 redox state during illumination. The electron donation to PSI was substantially reduced in iron-deficient cells. This could be related with the important decline on cytochrome c 6 content observed in these cells. Iron deficiency also induced a marked increase in light sensitivity in P. tricornutum cells. A drastic increase in the level of peroxidation of chloroplast lipids was detected in iron-deficient cells even when grown under standard conditions at low light intensity. Illumination with a light intensity of 300 μE m(-2) s(-1) during different time periods caused a dramatic disappearance in TL signal in cells grown under low iron concentration, this treatment not affecting to the signal in iron-replete cells. The results of this work suggest that iron deficiency induces partial blocking of the electron transfer between PSII and PSI, due to a lower concentration of the electron donor cytochrome c 6. This decreased electron transfer may induce the over-reduction of the plastoquinone pool and consequently the appearance of acceptor side photoinhibition in PSII even at low light intensities. The functionality of chlororespiratory electron transfer pathway under iron restricted conditions is also discussed.
