Photosynthetic organisms have acquired a dual mechanism to utilize and dissipate light energy via photosynthesis and photoprotection, respectively. In addition, chloroplast plasticity allows the fine-tuning of both processes, which has played a major role in plant adaptation to environmental conditions. In this special issue - organised by editors Michael Hippler, Jun Minagawa and Yuichiro Takahashi - we present five reviews and three research papers describing cutting edge research into the mechanisms establishing and optimising the balance between photosynthesis and photoinhibition, and we further explore how this knowledge can be used to improve photosynthetic efficiency by genetic engineering.
