Photoinhibition-like damage to the photosynthetic apparatus in plant leaves induced by submergence treatment in the dark.

Submergence is a common type of environmental stress for plants. It hampers survival and decreases crop yield, mainly by inhibiting plant photosynthesis. The inhibition of photosynthesis and photochemical efficiency by submergence is primarily due to leaf senescence and excess excitation energy, cau...
