Abstract
► A model of nonphotochemical (NPQ) quenching control in M. pyrifera is proposed. ► NPQ in the qE deficient M. pyrifera is related to the de-epoxidation state ratio. ► Violaxanthin and de-epoxidated xanthophylls compete for the quenching sites. ► Large xanthophyll cycle pigment pool accelerates the de-epoxidation of violaxanthin. ► High light acclimated blades have a large xanthophyll cycle pigment pool.
