Table 1.

Photosynthetic electron transport rate (ETR) of rice thylakoids and isolated photosystems

Sample Whole chain ETR PSII-driven ETR PSI-driven ETR ETR of isolated PSII ETR of isolated PSI
WT 158 ± 12 275 ± 8 215 ± 45 334 ± 35 185 ± 65
PsbS-KO 147 ± 14 269 ± 10 245 ± 55 341 ± 18 180 ± 70

PSII-driven ETR and ETR of isolated PSII were measured by oxygen evolution (H2O to phenyl-p-benzoquinone), and whole chain ETR (H2O to methyl viologen), PSI-driven ETR and ETR of isolated PSI (sodium ascorbate and 2,6-dichlorophenol-indophenol to methyl viologen) were measured by oxygen consumption. Unit: μmol O2 (mg Chl)−1 h−1.
