This text provides final year undergraduates, graduate students and researchers with a state-of-the-art overview of regulatory mechanisms governing the development, function, turnover and stress tolerance of the photosynthetic apparatus. The structural components of the photosynthetic apparatus are relatively well known and the next challenge will be to resolve the multitude of the regulatory functions occurring in chloroplasts at the molecular level. The book is divided into five sections. The first section examines the expression of photosynthesis-related genes, including signal transduction and redox regulation at both the transcriptional and translational levels. The second section focuses on the biogenesis, turnover and senescence of the thylakoid pigment protein complexes. The third section examines crucial regulatory steps in carbon metabolism including those in the ferredoxin-thioredoxin system. Various molecular mechanisms leading to acclimation and stress responses in chloroplasts are reviewed in the fourth section. The fifth section provides examples of novel methods that have become available with information obtained from sequencing programmes of photosynthetic organisms and which are now becoming crucial tools also in the studies of photosynthetic regulation.

'I was favorably impressed with the Regulation of Photosynthesis. The chapters are well-written and should be understandable to a broad audience; it will be an invaluable resource in graduate courses.'
Plant Science,162 (2002)
The book covers the expression of photosynthesis related genes including regulation both at transcriptional and translational levels. Biogenesis, turnover and senescence of thylakoid pigment protein complexes are reviewed and some crucial regulatory steps in carbon metabolism are highlighted. The stress and acclimation responses in chloroplasts are examined at molecular level. The book also provides examples of novel methods for studies of photosynthetic regulation.
