Chloroplast photorelocation is a vital organellar response that optimizes photosynthesis in plants amid fluctuating environmental conditions. Chloroplasts exhibit an accumulation response, in which they move toward weak light to enhance photoreception, and an avoidance response, in which they move away from strong light to avoid photodamage. Although chloroplast photorelocation has been extensively studied in model plants such as Arabidopsis thaliana , little is known about this process in the economically important crop strawberry. Here, we investigated chloroplast photorelocation in leaf mesophyll cells of wild strawberry ( Fragaria vesca ), a diploid relative of commercially cultivated octoploid strawberry ( F . × ananassa ). Microscopy observation revealed that the periclinal area of leaf mesophyll cells in F. vesca is considerably smaller than that of A. thaliana . Given this small cell size, we investigated chloroplast photorelocation in F. vesca by measuring light transmittance in leaves. Weak blue light induced the accumulation response, whereas strong blue light induced the avoidance response. Unexpectedly, strong red light also induced the accumulation response in F. vesca . These findings shed light on chloroplast photorelocation as an intracellular response, laying the foundation for enhancing photosynthesis and productivity in Fragaria . |
