Abstract

This perspective summarizes my personal recollections about the initial discovery of the involvement of the xanthophyll cycle in photoprotective energy dissipation, starting with my arrival at Olle Björkman's laboratory at the Carnegie Institution and focusing on events from the mid-1980s to the early 1990s.
