Abstract

Photosynthesis is a well-established source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in plants. The photosynthetic electron transport chain (PET) operates in an aerobic environment; thus, regulatory systems are required to minimize ROS production. Moreover, an efficient antioxidant network is also essential
