Gibberellins Enhance Cell Wall Extensibility without Acidification.

Enzyme Expansins and Xyloglucan endotransglycosylase (XET) is involved in gibberellin-promoted wall extension. The function of XET may be to facilitate the penetration of expansins into the cell wall.

Cyclic electron transport pathway is catalyzed by the NADH dehydrogenase‐like (NDH) complex in the thylakoid

membrane. This large complex is similar to mitochondrial Complex I,

The NDH pathway is especially prominent during oxidative stress. 

The second pathway involves a ferredoxin‐quinone oxidoreductase that is sensitive to antimycin A.

Some of the cytochrome b6 f complexes are found in the stroma region of the membrane, where photosystem I is located. Under certain conditions cyclic electron flow from the reducing side of photosystem I, through the b6 f complex and back to P700, is known to occur.

When PSII receives more light than PSI, plastoquinone becomes predominantly reduced, resulting in activation of the LHCII kinase. The kinase phosphorylates LHCII, resulting in migration of LHCII away from the granal region where it can associate with PSI, thereby adjusting the relative excitation of PSII and PSI.
