Light perception and the role of the xanthophyll cycle in blue-light-dependent chloroplast movements in Lemna trisulca L.
In most higher plants, chloroplasts move towards the periclinal cell walls in weak blue light (WBL) to increase light harvesting for photosynthesis, and towards the anticlinal walls as an escape reaction, thus avoiding photo-damage in strong blue light (SBL). The photoreceptor(s) triggering these re...
