2.3.1.37	agriculture	with high irradiance, transgenic rice lines P5 and P14 expressing 5-aminolevulinate synthase show a decrease in contents of chlorophyll and the chloroplast-encoded gene psbA mRNA, whereas a decrease in light-harvesting Chl-binding proteins is observed only in P14. These effects are not observed in the wild-type or all of the lines treated with low irradiance. High irradiance results in a greater decrease in the quantum yield of photosystem 2 and a greater increase in nonphotochemical quenching in the transgenic lines, particularly in P14. Photoprotective zeaxanthin contents increase at high irradiance, even though carotenoid contents are lower in the transgenic lines. When exposed to high irradiance, superoxide dismutase greatly increased in transgenic lines P5 and P14, but peroxidase and glutathione reductase increases only in P14, in which more photodynamic damage occurrs	Bradyrhizobium japonicum
