High light exposure rapidly activates non-photochemical quenching (NPQ), protecting plants from photooxidative damage. Contrarily, its relaxation upon transition to normal light occurs quite slowly, limiting photosynthetic efficiency. De Souza et al. demonstrated that by overexpressing NPQ-related genes, faster NPQ relaxation and enhanced photosynthesis can be achieved under fluctuating light conditions.
