Downregulation of PSII activity and increased cyclic electron transport in cotton prevents PSI from photoinhibition due to night chilling

The objective of this experiment was to study the effects of night chilling on the photosynthetic characteristics of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) at a boll-forming stage. The results suggest that overreduction of PSII after night chilling (≤ 10°C) led to excess excitation energy in cotton leaves....
