Deletion includes the centromere, then the chromosome will not segregate in meiosis or mitosis and will usually be lost.

Upon illumination, the flow of protons from the stroma into the thylakoid lumen is coupled to the release of Mg2+ from the intra thylakoid space to the stroma. These light actuated ion fluxes decrease the stromal concentration of protons (the pH increases from 7 to 8) and increase that of Mg2+ by 2 to 5 mM.

The light-mediated increase of pH and the concentration of Mg2+ activate enzymes of the Calvin–Benson cycle that require Mg2+ for catalysis and are more active at pH 8 than at pH 7: rubisco, fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase, sedoheptulose 1,7-bisphosphatase, and phosphoribulokinase.  The modifications of ionic composition of the chloroplast stroma are reversed rapidly upon darkening.
