Xanthophyll cycle-related non-photochemical quenching protects Sargassum thunbergii from high light-induced photoinhibition

As a common macroalga living in the intertidal zone, Sargassum thunbergii (Sargassaceae, Phaeophyta) is often exposed to drastic changes in solar photosynthetically active radiation during a diurnal cycle; thus, the potential photosynthetic adaptation processes deserve attention. In this work, we ex...
