Fluorescence induction kinetics was used to investigate the effects of dehydration and rehydration on photosynthesis of detached leaves of the desiccation-tolerant, resurrective plant Boea hygrometrica (Bunge) R. Br. In comparison with the desiccation-intolerant plant Chirita heterotricha Merr., the PSⅡphotochemical activity of Boea hygrometrica was characterized by a faster decline during dehydration and a much higher capacity of recovery during rehydration. By means of native PAGE, it was further shown that the thylakoid pigment-protein complexes of Boea hygrometrica were highly stable during dehydration and rehydration. These features may contribute to the extreme desiccation resistance of photosynthesis apparatus of resurrective plant Boea hygrometrica.
