광은 식물 광합성에 반드시 요구되는 에너지이다. 차광의 종류를 전면차광과 부분차광으로 구분하고, 각각의 차광 조건에서 생육한 콩의 엽록소 형광을 관측하여 광합성능을 평가하였다. 전면차광에서는 SPAD값으로 대표되는 엽록소 농도와 광이용효율을 표현하는 ETR (Electron Transport Rate)이 크게 낮아졌다. 차광 박스 제거 후에 SPAD와 ETR 모두 대조구와 같은 정도가 되었으나, 열 소산 기작을 나타내는 NPQ (Non-Photochemical fluorescence Quenching)는 높아졌다. 이렇게 전면차광을 겪었던 콩의 광이용효율은 회복했지만, 높아진 NPQ가 광인산화 효율을 떨어뜨리므로 실제 노지 광합성량은 필연적으로 낮아질 것이다. 부분 차광에서도 SPAD와 ETR이 대조구와 큰 차이를 보이지 않았으나, NPQ는 높은 모습을 보였다. 따라서, 도시 농업 또는 영농형 태양광과 같은 부분차광 조건의 광합 성량은 단순히 작물의 광이용효율과 누적 광 에너지량으로 계산한 추정값보다 작을 것으로 예상된다.

As essential trace elements, copper and zinc play important roles in many physiological events in plants. In excess, however, these elements can limit plant growth. This study selected a heavy metal-tolerant plant by analyzing seed germination and biomass of alfalfa (Medicago sativa), canola (Brassica campestris subsp. napus var. nippo-oleifera), Chinese corn (Setaria italica), and a sorghum-sudangrass hybrid (Sorghum bicolor ${\times}$ S. sudanense), and determined heavy metal uptake capacity by analyzing biomass, chlorophyll a fluorescence, and heavy metal contents under high external copper or zinc levels. The seed germination rate and biomass of the sorghum-sudangrass hybrid were higher under copper or zinc stress compared to the other three plants. The plant biomass and photosynthetic pigment contents of the sorghum-sudangrass hybrid seedlings were less vulnerable under low levels of heavy metals (${\leq}50ppm$ copper or ${\leq}400ppm$ zinc). The maximum quantum yield of PSII ($F_v/F_m$) and the maximum primary yield of PSII ($F_v/F_o$) decreased with increasing copper or zinc levels. Under high copper levels, the decline in $F_v/F_m$ was caused only by the decline in $F_m$, and was accompanied by an increase in non-photochemical quenching (NPQ). The $F_v/F_m$ declined under high levels of zinc due to both a decrease in the maximum fluorescence ($F_m$) and an increase in the initial fluorescence ($F_o$), and this was accompanied by a marked decrease in photochemical quenching (qP), but not by an increase in NPQ. Accumulations of copper and zinc were found in both aboveand below-ground parts of plants, but were greater in the below-ground parts. The uptake capacity of the sorghum-sudangrass hybrid for copper and zinc reached 4459.1 mg/kg under 400 ppm copper and 9028.5 mg/kg under 1600 ppm zinc. Our results indicate that the sorghum-sudangrass hybrid contributes to the in situ phytoremediation of copper or zinc polluted soils due to its high biomass yield.

Susceptibility to low temperature photoinhibition in photosynthetic apparatus was compared among three cucumber cultivars, Gahachungjang (GH), Banbaekjijeo (BB) and Gaeryangsymji (GR). By chilling in the light for 6 h, a sustained decrease in the potential quantum yield (Fv/Fm) and the oxidizable P700 contents was observed, and the decrease was less in GH than in BB and GR. Although the difference was small, some $\Phi_{PSII}$ remained in GH after light-chilling for 6 h indicating that a few electrons can flow around photosystem II(PSII). As a consequence, the primary electron acceptor of PSII, $Q_{A}$, was reduced slowly and was not fully reduced after light-chilling for 6 h in GH. Although the amplitude was small, the development of NPQ was also faster in GH, indicating a higher capacity for non-photochemical energy dissipation. The relative fraction of a fast relaxing component of NPQ (qf) was higher in GH. After light-chilling for 5 h, the values of qf in BB and GR became much smaller than that in GH, indicating BB and GR suffered more significant uncoupling of ATPase and/or irreversible damages in PSII. When fluorescence induction transients were recorded after chilling, significant differences in quenching coefficients (qQ and qN) were observed among the three cultivars.

Agrivoltaic System (AVS) was introduced with the concept that it could generate electricity by using the extra light remain after crops use for photosynthesis in farm, which can earn additional income. However, crop yield was declined under the AVS condition due to the decrease in light energy. In the past, many researchers have been studied about crop states under shading conditions. However, the phenomenon of partial shading such as under the AVS is not well studied. In this study, to figure out the response of crop under the different light conditions, the electron transport rate (ETR) and non-photochemical quenching (NPQ) of rice was investigated using the chlorophyll fluorescence measurement. Also, physiological changes of crops under the shading conditions were investigated. The growth experiment under partial shading under AVS and overall shading which made of 35% shade cloth was conducted to understand the eco-physiological responses of rice to light in terms of the photosynthesis. Under the shading conditions, SPAD value and chlorophyll contents were higher, but the leaf thickness was lower than control. The overall shading condition show lower ETR than others during the growing season. In contrast, NPQ was higher than other treatments. This means the available light energy cannot contribute to photosynthesis under the shading condition.

차나무의 기내배양 과정 중 증식배양 단계에서 LED 광질 조건에 따른 기내배양묘의 생육 특성과 광합성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 광질은 적색광(R), 청색광(B), 혼합광(R+B+W)을 사용하여 처리하였고, 형광등(F)을 대조구로 하였다. 초장 생육은 적색광에서 가장 좋았으며, 특히 뿌리 생육에 있어서 혼합광은 길이와 표면적 증대에 효과적인 것으로 나타났다. 또한 T/R율, 엽록소 함량은 혼합광 처리에서 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 엽록소 형광반응 이미지 촬영 결과 모든 처리구에서 광질에 따른 Fv/Fm의 값은 현저한 차이가 없었다. 그러나 배양묘의 NPQ는 청색광 처리에서 가장 많이 증가하여, 다른 광질과 유의적인 차이를 보였으며, 광합성 효율을 억제시키는 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과로 차나무 기내배양은 배양목적에 따라 광질을 선택하는 것은 매우 중요하며, 차나무 기내배양 시 건실한 식물 생산을 위해서는 혼합광 처리가 유리할 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구결과는 차나무 대량증식 및 우량묘 생산 등에 기초자료로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Pathogen infection in plants induces complex responses ranging from gene expression to metabolic processes in infected plants. In spite of many studies on biotic stress-related changes in host plants, little is known about the metabolic and phenotypic responses of the host plants to Pseudomonas cichorii infection based on image-based analysis. To investigate alterations in tomato plants according to disease severity, we inoculated plants with different cell densities of P. cichorii using dipping and syringe infiltration methods. High-dose inocula (${\geq}10^6cfu/ml$) induced evident necrotic lesions within one day that corresponded to bacterial growth in the infected tissues. Among the chlorophyll fluorescence parameters analyzed, changes in quantum yield of PSII (${\Phi}PSII$) and non-photochemical quenching (NPQ) preceded the appearance of visible symptoms, but maximum quantum efficiency of PSII ($F_v/F_m$) was altered well after symptom development. Visible/near infrared and chlorophyll fluorescence hyperspectral images detected changes before symptom appearance at low-density inoculation. The results of this study indicate that the P. cichorii infection severity can be detected by chlorophyll fluorescence assay and hyperspectral images prior to the onset of visible symptoms, indicating the feasibility of early detection of diseases. However, to detect disease development by hyperspectral imaging, more detailed protocols and analyses are necessary. Taken together, change in chlorophyll fluorescence is a good parameter for early detection of P. cichorii infection in tomato plants. In addition, image-based visualization of infection severity before visual damage appearance will contribute to effective management of plant diseases.

Red macroalga Pyropia yezoensis is a high valuable cultivated marine crop. Its acclimation to cold stress is especially important for long cultivation period across winter in coasts of warm temperate zone in East Asia. In this study, the response of P. yezoensis thalli to low temperature was analyzed on physiology and transcriptome level, to explore its acclimation mechanism to cold stress. The results showed that the practical photosynthesis activity (indicated by Φ_PSII and qP) was depressed and pigment allophycocyanin content was decreased during the cold stress of 48 h. However, the F_v/F_m and non-photochemical quenching increased significantly after 24 h, and the average growth rate of thalli also rebounded from 24 to 48 h, indicating a certain extent of acclimation to cold stress. On transcriptionally, the low temperature promoted the expression of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) related to carbohydrate metabolism and energy metabolism, while genes related to photosynthetic system were depressed. The increased expression of DEGs involved in ribosomal biogenesis and lipid metabolism which could accelerate protein synthesis and enhance the degree of fatty acid unsaturation, might help P. yezoensis thallus cells to cope with cold stress. Further co-expression network analysis revealed differential expression trends along with stress time, and corresponding hub genes play important roles in the systemic acquired acclimation to cold stress. This study provides basic mechanisms of P. yezoensis acclimation to cold temperature and may aid in exploration of functional genes for genetic breeding of economic macroalgae.

색소체 transit 서열이 결여된 Bradyrhizobium japonicum ALA-S 유전자를 과발현하는 형질전환 벼의 광역학적 스트레스에 의해 유도되는 항산화반응을 조사하였다. $350{\mu}mol\;m^{-2}\;s^{-1}$ 의 높은 광 수준은 야생형 벼에 비교하였을 때 형질전환 계통인 C4와 C5의 quantum yield를 감소시켰다. 대조적으로, 높은 광수준 하에서 형질전환 계통 C4와 C5의 nonphotochemical quenching (NPQ) 수준은 야생형 계통과 낮은 광 수준 하의 형질전환 계통에 비해 높은 증가를 보여주었다. 형질전환 계통에서 높은 NPQ 수준은 xanthophyll인 zeaxanthin 수준의 증가와 밀접한 관련이 있었다. $150{\mu}mol\;m^{-2}\;s^{-1}$ 의 낮은 광 수준과 비교하였을 때 높은 광 수준에서 violaxanthin 수준이 야생형 벼에서 증가하였으나, 형질전환 C4와 C5 계통에서는 현저하게 감소하였다. 형질전환 벼에서 nonphotochemical energy dissipation과 광보호기작을 가진 xanthophyll 색소가 광역학적 피해를 조절하는데 결정적인 역할을 하는 것으로 생각되나, 이러한 기작이 광역학 스트레스를 극복하지는 못하였고 결과적으로 photobleaching 증상에 이르게 하였다.

Light quality is a common environmental factor which influences the metabolism of biochemical substances in algae and leads to the response of algal growth and development. Pyropia yezoensis is a kind of economic macroalgae that naturally grows in the intertidal zone where the light environment changes dramatically. In the present study, P. yezoensis thalli were treated under white light (control) and monochromatic lights with primary colors (blue, green, and red) for 14 days to explore their physiological response to light quality. During the first 3 days of treatment, P. yezoensis grew faster under blue light than other light qualities. In the next 11 days, it showed better adaptation to green light, with higher growth rate and photosynthetic capacity (reflected by a higher rETR_max = 61.58 and E_k = 237.78). A higher non-photochemical quenching was observed in the treatment of red light than others for 14 days. Furthermore, the response of P. yezoensis to light quality also results in the difference of photosynthetic pigment contents. The monochromatic light could reduce the synthesis of all pigments, but the reduction degree was different, which may relate to the spectral absorption characteristics of pigments. It was speculated that P. yezoensis adapted to a specific or changing light environments by regulating the synthesis of pigments to achieve the best use of light energy in photosynthesis and premium growth and metabolism.

겨울철 제설제로 사용되고 있는 염화칼슘($CaCl_2$)이 산벚나무(P. sargentii) 가로수에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위해서, 염화칼슘 농도가 다른 수용액을 2회 처리 후 엽록소형광이미지와 광반응-광합성속도와 같은 광합성기구의 반응, 엽과 근원경 생장을 조사하였다. 3년생 산벚나무를 대상으로 개엽 전에 염화칼슘 0.5%(9 mM), 1.0%(18 mM), 3.0%(54 mM)를 2(1 L)회 뿌리둘레 부위에 처리하였다. 염화칼슘의 처리결과, 염화칼슘의 농도가 짙어짐에 따라 대조구에 비해 염화칼슘처리구의 총엽록소함량과 엽록소 a/b, 광합성속도, 양자수율, 암호흡이 감소하였다. 반면 광보상점은 염화칼슘의 농도가 높아짐에 따라 증가였다. 광합성과 양자수율, 암호흡, 광보상점과의 상관관계에서 양자수율과 광보상점에서 유의성이 나타났다(p<0.05). 한편, 최대형광($F_M$)과 최소형광($F_0$)의 차이인 Fv값의 형광이미지를 통해 빛을 이용하는 능력의 차이가 처리구와 대조구간에 확실하게 나타나는 것을 알 수 있었으며, 광계의 활성(Fv/$F_M$과 비광화학적 소멸(NPQ)의 처리 80일째 값이 모든 처리구에서 대조구에 비해 급격히 감소하였다. 이와 같은 결과로 염화칼슘 수용액에 의해서 산벚나무의 광합성, 동화기관 및 비대생장이 장애를 받고 있음을 알 수 있었다.
