Changes in photoelectron transport of chloroplasts isolated from dark stressed leaves of maize seedlings.
Transfer of light-grown maize seedlings to dark causes a loss in the the contents of chlorophyll, protein and RNA of leaves, and a decline in DCPIP photoreduction by isolated chloroplasts. The loss in DCPIP-Hill reaction is attributed to the dark stress-induced damage of O2 evolving system of thylakoid membranes.
