Spectral radiation dependent photoprotective mechanism in the diatom Pseudo-nitzschia multistriata.
Phytoplankton, such as diatoms, experience great variations of photon flux density (PFD) and light spectrum along the marine water column. Diatoms have developed some rapidly-regulated photoprotective mechanisms, such as the xanthophyll cycle activation (XC) and the non-photochemical chlorophyll flu...
