Substituted p-Benzoquinones Having High Electron Affinity as Photosystem II Electron Acceptors
Substituted Benzoquinones, Photosystem II Acceptors Benzoquinones (BQ) substituted with alkyl or alkoxy groups 2,5-dimethoxy-3,6-dichloro-/>benzoquinone (DCDMQ), 2,3,5,6-tetramethoxy-/?-benzoquinone (TMQ) have been tested for their electron affinity and site of action in the photosynthetic electron transport chain in whole cells and chloroplasts. Both the substituted compounds were found to be ...
متن کاملComparative Study on the Effect of Water Stress and Rootstock on Photosynthetic Function in Pistachio (Pistacia vera L.) Trees
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...
متن کاملSubstituted N-phenylpyrazine-2-carboxamides, Their Synthesis, Hydro-lipophilic Properties and Evaluation of Their Antimycobacterial, Antifungal and Photosynthesis- inhibiting Activity
A series of sixteen pyrazinamide analogues with the -CONHlinker connecting the pyrazine and benzene rings was synthesized by the condensation of chlorides of substituted pyrazinecarboxylic acids with ring-substituted (chlorine) anilines and characterized. The results of in vitro antimycobacterial screening indicated some interesting antimycobacterial activity. 6-Chloro-N-(4-chlorophenyl)pyrazin...
متن کاملInhibition of photosynthetic electron transport by diphenyl ether herbicides.
The effects of the diphenyl ether herbicides HOE 29152 (methyl-2[4-(4-trifluoromethoxy) phenoxy] propanoate) and nitrofluorfen (2-chloro-1-[4-nitrophenoxy]-4-[trifluoromethyl]benzene) on photosynthetic electron transport have been examined with pea seedling and spinach chloroplasts. Linear electron transport (water to ferricyanide or methylviologen) is inhibited in treated chloroplasts, but nei...
متن کاملInteraction of Photosystem II Herbicides with Bicarbonate and Formate in Their Effects on Photosynthetic Electron Flow
The reactivation of the Hill reaction in C 0 2-depleted broken chloroplasts by various concen trations of bicarbonate was measured in the absence and in the presence o f photosystem II herbicides. It appears that these herbicides decrease the apparent affinity o f the thylakoid membrane for bicarbonate. Different characteristics o f bicarbonate binding were observed in chloroplasts o f triazin...
