By comparing growth under five different temperature and irradiance regimes
(20[deg]C and 800, 250, and 50[mu]mol m-2 s-1 and 5[deg]C and 250 and 50
[mu]mul m-2 s-1), we have examined the effects of light, temperature, and
the relative reduction state of photosystem II on plant morphology,
freezing tolerance (lethal temperature at which freezing injury occurs
[LT50]), transcript levels of Lhcb and two cold-stimulated genes (Wcs19 and
Wcs120), and photosynthetic adjustment in winter rye (Secale cereale L. cv
Musketeer). We show, for the first time to our knowledge, that in addition
to adjustments in photosynthetic capacity, nonphotochemical quenching
capacity and tolerance to photoinhibition, the accumulation of the
cold-induced transcript Wcs19, and the compact plant morphology usually
associated with cold-hardening are correlated with the relative reduction
state of photosystem II rather than with growth temperature or growth
irradiance per se. In contrast, the acquisition of maximal LT50, as well as
Lhcb and Wcs120 mRNA accumulation, appears to be dependent on both growth
temperature and growth irradiance but in an independent, additive manner.
The results are discussed with respect to the possible role of the
modulation of chloroplastic redox poise in photosynthetic acclimation to
cold-hardening temperatures and the attainment of maximal LT50.
