Qualitative modelling and analysis of Photosystem II
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, a work-in-progress aiming at qualitative modelling of photosynthesis at the mechanistic cellular level by means of Petri nets is described. Presented preliminary results concentrate on modelling and analysis of photosystem II, a crucial component of photosynthesis. By employing qualitative model checking combined with invariant analysis we obtain new insights into electron transfer mechanisms studied in photosystem II.

Interveinal chlorosis induced by iron deficiency is considered to be one of the problems in rose production in greenhouses all over the world. This experiment was conducted to elucidate the capability of chlorophyll fluorescence imaging technique to recognize early iron deficiency and also determination of relationship between leaf iron concentration and leaf chlorophyll content index and photo...
متن کاملEffects of short-time alkaline pretreatment on growth and photosynthesis efficiency of endemic cyanobacterium Fischerella sp. FS 18.
Alkaline pH is one of the most important problems of our aquatic habitat. We used Stigonematalean native cyanobacterium Fischerella sp. FS 18 as our model strain, andstudied it under different alkaline pHs (7, 9 and rarely 11) under two different – short and long- time treatments (24 and 96 hours after inoculation). Spectroscopic results showed that both alkalinity and time affected growth rate...

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of water deficit stress on chlorophyll fluorescence (CF) characteristics of photosystem II (PSII) and pigment contents in two rootstock seedlings (Pistacia atlantica L. and P. khinjuk L.). Three levels of soil water potential (Ψs) was used, including WWD (-0.05 MPa), MWD (-0.7 MPa) and SWD (-1.5 MPa). It was found that water stress increased the...

In this study, Response Surface Methodology (RSM) using Central Composite Design (CCD) was employed to optimize the conditions of independent variables (adsorption time and ion solution concentration) for the removal of Zinc (II) and Ag ions from the aqueous solutions using analcime and modified analcime zeolites (Fe-ANA and Ni-ANA) as efficient and low cost adsor...
متن کاملMolecular Modelling of the Interaction of Cyanoacrylate Inhibitors with Photosystem II Part 1. The Effect of Hydrophobicity of Inhibitor Binding
The secondary quinone binding site of photosystem II is also the binding site for many dif ferent herbicides. The 2-cyanoacrylate inhibitors are a potent class of electron transfer inhibi tors which bind at this site and are extremely sensitive to minor structural variation. In order to understand their mode of binding, we have studied the interaction between the inhibitors and receptor in th...
