The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) invites you to participate in a short survey about your
interaction with the ARDC and use of our national research infrastructure and services. The survey will take
approximately 5 minutes and is anonymous. It’s open to anyone who uses our digital research infrastructure
services including Reasearch Link Australia.
We will use the information you provide to improve the national research infrastructure and services we
deliver and to report on user satisfaction to the Australian Government’s National Collaborative Research
Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS) program.
Please take a few minutes to provide your input. The survey closes COB Friday 29 May 2026.

THE MECHANISMS OF PHOTOPROTECTION IN PLANTS - A GENOMICS AND PHOTOPHYSICAL APPROACH. Coping with adverse environmental conditions is central to plant survival in nature so understanding the photoprotective mechanisms of light acclimation is important for crop improvement. Therefore, effective acclimatory mechanisms at whole plant, cellular and molecular levels are essential to accommodate short and long-term exposure to potentially photodamaging full sunlight and environmental stresses, such as ....THE MECHANISMS OF PHOTOPROTECTION IN PLANTS - A GENOMICS AND PHOTOPHYSICAL APPROACH. Coping with adverse environmental conditions is central to plant survival in nature so understanding the photoprotective mechanisms of light acclimation is important for crop improvement. Therefore, effective acclimatory mechanisms at whole plant, cellular and molecular levels are essential to accommodate short and long-term exposure to potentially photodamaging full sunlight and environmental stresses, such as drought and temperature extremes that lead to plant death or greatly reduced crop yields due to free radical damage. This project brings together a unique cross-disciplinary expertise in biophysics, biochemistry, physiology and genomics to elucidate the known mechanisms and identify unknown factors in photoprotection.Read moreRead less
