Pigment bleaching of cells induced by HL conditions. A, Wild-type (WT; 137c), control (CS; LHCSR1–Luc717), and uvr8-, npq4-, and npq4 uvr8-mutant strains in a 24-well plate after treatment with LL (30 μmol photons/m2/s) or HL (500 μmol photons/m2/s) containing UV (UV-supplemented fluorescent light at 10 μmol photons/m2/s) for 10 h. Cell concentration was normalized to 5 × 106 cells/mL. Representative pictures from one of three replicated experiments are shown, each performed using different biological samples. B, Chlorophyll contents of samples from A were normalized to cell number. Data are mean ± se, n = 3 biological replicates.
