e0“Grape (Vitis vinifera cv Silvaner) vine plants were cultivated under shaded conditions in the absence of ultraviolet (UV) radiation in a greenhouse, and subsequently placed outdoors under three different light regimes for 7 d”
e7“However, UV-B inhibition of CO2assimilation rates was not diminished by efficient UV-B screening. We propose that protection of UV-B inactivation of PSII is observed because preceding damage is efficiently repaired while those factors determining UV-B inhibition of CO2 assimilation recover more slowly”

Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect All light treatments increased hydroxycinnamic acid concentrations in grape leaves during exposure.
- Intervention effect Hydroxycinnamic acid concentrations rose highest, to 230% of the initial value, when UV radiation was absent.
- Intervention effect UV-B radiation specifically increased flavonoid concentrations in grape leaves by more than 10-fold.
- Association UV transmittance of extracted phenolics was lower than epidermal UV transmittance.
- Association UV transmittance of extracted phenolics and epidermal UV transmittance were curvilinearly related.
- Mechanism Curvilinearity between the two transmittance measures is suggested to result from different absorption properties of dissolved extracts and the non-homogeneous epidermal distribution of phenolics.
- Association UV-B-dependent inhibition of maximum photochemical yield of PSII recovered in parallel to the buildup of epidermal screening against UV-B.
- Mechanism PSII is suggested to be protected against UV-B damage by epidermal screening.
- Mechanism Protection of PSII against UV-B inactivation is suggested to occur because preceding damage is efficiently repaired.
- Mechanism Factors determining UV-B inhibition of CO2 assimilation are suggested to recover more slowly.
