The production of reactive oxygen species in the chloroplast may increase under water deficit. To determine if this causes oxidative damage to the photosynthetic apparatus, nit analyzed the accumulation of oxidatively damaged proteins in thylakoids of a;ater-stressed wheat (Triticum aestivum L,) leaves. Water stress was imposed on 4-week-old plants by withholding watering for 10 days to reach a soil water potential of about -2.0 MPa. In thylakoids of,vater-stressed leaves there was an increase in oxidative damage, particularly in polypeptides of 68, 54, 41 and 24 kDa, High molecular mass oxidized (probably cross-linked) proteins accumulated in chloroplasts of droughted leaves. Oxidative damage,vas associated with a substantial decrease in photosynthetic electron transport activity and photosystem II (PSII) efficiency (F-v/F-m), Treatment of stressed leaves with L-galactono-1,4-lactone (GL) increased their ascorbic acid content and enhanced photochemical and non-photochemical quenching of chlorophyll fluorescence, GL reduced oxidative damage to photosynthetic proteins of droughted plants, but it reverted the decrease in electron transport activity and PSII efficiency only partially, suggesting that other factors also contributed to loss of photosystem activity in droughted plants. Increasing the ascorbic acid content of leaves might be an effective strategy to protect thylakoid membranes from oxidative damage in water-stressed leaves.
