“…Thus, reduced TR0/CSm and ET0/CSm indicates that active RCs are converted into inactive RCs, reducing the efficiency of trapping and a decline in PSII activity. Similar results have been reported in heath plants under drought stress (Albert et al, 2011), in spinach leaves under low pH (Tongra et al, 2011) and in tomato leaf under heat stress (Zushi et al, 2012). In contrast, in the specific fluxes RC, ABS/RC, TR0/RC, and DI0/RC were relatively higher under drought stress (Figures 5 and 6).…”

Water shortage is a critical problem touching plant growth and yield in semi-arid areas, for instance the Mediterranean region. For this reason was studied the physiological basis of drought tolerance of a new, drought tolerant crop quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) tested in Morocco in two successive seasons, subject to four irrigation treatments (100, 50, and 33%ETc, and rainfed). The chlorophyll a fluorescence transients were analyzed by the JIP-test to translate stressinduced damage in these transients to changes in biophysical parameter's allowing quantification of the energy flow through the photosynthetic apparatus. Drought stress induced a significant decrease in the maximum quantum yield of primary photochemistry (φP0 = Fv/Fm), and the quantum yield of electron transport (φE0). The amount of active Photosystem II (PSII) reaction centers (RC) per excited cross section (RC/CS) also decreased when exposed to the highest drought stress. The effective antenna size of active RCs (ABS/RC) increased and the effective dissipation per active reaction centers (DIo/RC) increased by increasing drought stress during the growth season in comparison to the control. However the performance index (PI), was a very sensitive indicator of the physiological status of plants. Leaf area index, leaf water potential and stomatal conductance decreased as the drought increased. These results indicate that, in quinoa leaf, JIP-test can be used as a sensitive method for measuring drought stress effects.

“…The work carried out on seven winter wheat, demonstrated a continuous decrease in performance index from very beginning of dehydration (Živčák et al, 2008). Reduced amounts of PI was also reported in barley under low and high PAR (Kalaji et al, 2012), in response to both low and high PAR in tomato leaves and fruits (Zushi et al, 2012) and wheat plants under salinity stress (Mehta et al, 2010).

“…This is in agreement with dramatic decrease in φPo. Increase in φDo was also shown in two Syrian barley cultivars under salinity stress (Kalaji et al, 2011) and in tomato after chilling stress (Zushi et al, 2102;Mirsa et al, 2001) showed that increase in salinity from 100mM to 200 mM, caused dramatic decrease in φPo in PI ABS describe the energy conservation between photons absorbed by PSII and the reduction of intersystem electron acceptors (Zushi et al, 2012). In our study PI decreased significantly in both genotypes in mild and severe stresses, whereas reduction in MR was more considerable in comparison to HS, especially under severe drought condition ( Figure .…”

To study the effects of progressive drought stress on photosystem II behavior of wild (Spantaneum) and cultivated barley (Morocco), different levels of soil water availability, including control, moderate, mild, and severe water stress (70%, 50%, 30%, and 10% water holding capacity of soil, respectively) and rehydration were used. Polyphasic OJIP fluorescence transient of Morocco plants exhibited a considerable increase in fluorescence intensity at O, J, and I steps under mild and severe stress relative to slight increase in wild barley. Values of fluorescence parameters and quantum efficiencies, including minimal fluorescence, relative variable fluorescence at phase J and I, maximal quantum yield of photosystem II (PSII), performance index, electron transport yield, and excitation transfer efficiency were influenced by water stress in both genotypes. These parameters were significantly less affected in wild barley Downloaded by [UQ Library] at 11:57 16 June 2015 ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT 2by progressive drought stress compared to Morocco. After re-watering, both genotypes were able to restore from severe drought in most of the traits. Based on our findings, highly correlated values of relative water content (RWC) and independent JIP-test parameters (P<0.01) indicate that the chlorophyll a fluorescence induction technique is sensitive to plant water status and performance index represent an accurate and reliable indicator for early stress detection and also explore plant vitality under water stress.

“…These criteria include the density of reaction centers, the quantum efficiency of primary photochemistry, and conversion of excitation energy in electron transport (Strasser et al 2000(Strasser et al , 2010Zushi et al 2012). The vitality indices were created as non-specific parameters to be used mostly in practical applications, such as screening for enhanced stress tolerance underfield conditions (Srivastava et al 1999;Strasser et al 2004;.…”

Plants living under natural conditions are exposed to many adverse factors that interfere with the photosynthetic process, leading to declines in growth, development, and yield. The recent development of Chlorophyll a fluorescence (ChlF) represents a potentially valuable new approach to study the photochemical efficiency of leaves. Specifically, the analysis of fluorescence signals provides detailed information on the status and function of Photosystem II (PSII) reaction centers, lightharvesting antenna complexes, and both the donor and acceptor sides of PSII. Here, we review the results of fast ChlF analyses of photosynthetic responses to environmental stresses, and discuss the potential scientific and practical applications of this innovative methodology. The recent availability of portable devices has significantly expanded the potential utilization of ChlF techniques, especially for the purposes of crop phenotyping and monitoring.
