The biochemistry of the violaxanthin cycle is well-characterised (1) but no clear function of this cycle, in relation to photosynthesis, has been demonstrated. Demmig et al, (2, 3) have suggested that zeaxanthin formation is related to a special function of this carotenoid under photoinhibitory conditions that serves to prevent damage. The xanthophyll cycle thus may play a crucial role in the protection of the photosynthetic apparatus... [Pg.1448]
