Photoprotective Non-photochemical Quenching Does Not Prevent Kleptoplasts From Net Photoinactivation

The enigmatic association of photosynthetically active chloroplasts from algae and some sacoglossan sea slugs, called functional kleptoplasty, is a functional unique system of photosymbioses observed in metazoans. Besides the specific adaptations of the slugs necessary to incorporate and maintain th...
