| Summary: | Light-harvesting complexes (LHCs) regulate
light-controlled energy production during photosynthesis
process in plants. The proteins related to LHCs co-ordinate
molecules into the light antenna structures. Although,
structural information and genes related to the LHCs were
studied. There is a gap remaining to certify the function of
LHCs on the growth and physiology of plants. In the recent
year, LHCs progressively increase the functional activities
in the plants, which gain interest and importance to the
researchers due to the ability of plants to respond and
acclimate to the environmental conditions due to climate
changes. To date, information is still being presented
regarding the function of LHCs on growth and physiology
of plants. This mini-review highlights the improvements
made among LHCs on growth and physiological processes
of plants through which glutathione (GSH), chlorophyll
content, photosynthesis and nonphotochemical quenching
act in plants. |
