Abstract
Plant diseases are a major threat to food security, causing drastic alterations in plant metabolism upon infection by pathogens. This often results in decreased biomass accumulation, slowed growth rates, and diminished yield components. Pathogens, through various lifestyles such as biotrophic, necrotrophic, and hemibiotrophic, disrupt photosynthesis, the primary metabolic process, via functional and structural damages. Furthermore, the CO2 assimilation in plants is severely altered by pathogens regardless of their lifestyles. Photosynthetic determinations allow us to establish a perspective about the physiological impairment caused by pathogens related to alterations in the CO2 flow from the atmosphere to carboxylation sites, stomatal limitations, and photosynthetic performance of photosystem II (PSII). From the changes in the energy, dissipation is possible to establish the functional status of the photochemistry machinery under stress conditions. For the above, chlorophyll a fluorescence (CF) and CF imaging (CFI) arose as a method highly sensible to determine the damage caused by pathogens in plants. This review shows a practical perspective on CF tools using visual method and rapid fluorescence induction kinetics (OJIP-test), for disease detection associated with plant-pathogen interaction studies from the physiological viewpoint, their implications for plant pathology research, applications for the plant phenotyping field, and biotic stress detection.

1. Introduction
The photosynthetic process is one of the most important metabolic pathways through which plants transform the sunlight into chemical energy obtaining carbohydrates to be used in other metabolic events [1]. In plants, the sunlight energy may be dissipated by photochemistry (photosynthesis light reactions), chlorophyll fluorescence (photon re-emission), and heat (Figure 1) [2]. Metabolic process of photosynthesis has been studied in two stages: (i) light reactions: these processes allow the solar energy contained in photons of sunlight to be processed in the membranes of chloroplasts to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) and (ii) the Calvin-Benson cycle, which produces triose-P and, as a result, the recovery of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP), in which how CO2 is reduced [3, 4]. Chlorophyll fluorescence occurs when the electron transfer from a chlorophyll molecule at the reaction center of the photosystem II (PSII) to a plastoquinone molecule within the plastoquinone transporter, results in fluorescence emission [2]. Finally, the energy cannot be dissipated by photochemistry or fluorescence, and it is dissipated by heat emission [5, 6]. Under this perspective, plants utilize the sun’s energy mainly to supply the demands of the primary metabolism; however, external (stresses) and intrinsic (diffusional and biochemical limitations) factors related to the photosynthetic process induce alternative pathways such as fluorescence and heat emission to help in the energy dissipation process to reduce functional and structural damages in the plant cell derivatives of energy accumulation [2].
To study the photosynthesis, several methodologies have been developed involving determinations based on changes in CO2 and water vapor differential concentrations using infrared sensors (infrared gas analyzer (IRGA)) through which it is possible calculate the leaf gas exchange parameters such as net CO2 assimilation rate (
On the other hand, the chlorophyll a fluorescence (CF) has been a non-invasive and non-destructive method successful to study photosynthetic responses from plants under different conditions [11]. Currently, the CF method is applied in diverse fields, especially for rapid diagnosis of abiotic or stress biotic [12, 13] based on changes in the energy dissipation magnitude in the photochemical reactions [10]. Basically, the CF method has been developed from “Kautsky’s effect,” which was studied when the photosynthetic sample was transferred from the dark to the light, the CF yield increased over a time span of about 1 second. This effect led to increases in the CF yield with a consequent reduction of electron acceptors in the photosynthetic pathway inducing quinone A (QA) reduction due to one electron reception which must be transferred to quinone B (QB), ensuring the linear electron flow [5]. Therefore, variations in CF characteristics can be indicative of various stresses, including nutrient deficiencies, water deficit, pathogen infections, and high light intensity [2]. By monitoring the CF, scientists, agronomists, and other professionals can gain insights into plant performance and make informed decisions regarding crop management and stress mitigation strategies. In this sense, the CF can be used as a diagnostic tool for assessing plant health and stress responses.
For the plant pathology field, the CF tool has been used for the detection of changes in the energy dissipation pattern in several pathosystems related to fungi, viruses, bacteria, and oomycetes, for example,
The use of these devices has allowed crop monitoring on the field and under controlled conditions, plant health management, and ecosystem dynamics [23]. Additionally, the CF imaging technique enable the spatial and temporal visualization of photosynthetic activity, allowing for the assessment of plant performance and the detection of heterogeneity in responses [6]. The integration of the CF with other “omics” technologies further enhances our understanding of photosynthetic regulation and stress responses at the molecular, metabolic, genomic, and phenomic level [24]. Overall, the CF technique plays a crucial role in advancing our knowledge of plant function and resilience. In this sense, the aim of the review was describing the use of the CF as a technique of determination of biotic stress in the plant pathology field.
2. Chlorophyll a fluorescence: method and application
The CF has been used as a technique in photosynthesis research, providing valuable information on the structure and function of the photosynthetic apparatus [10, 12]. In this sense, the photosynthetic response can be estimated by fluorescence changes which study through two types of CF measurement such as continuous excitation and pulsed excitation [5].
Firstly, a method uses pulse amplitude modulation (PAM). The PAM method measures CF induced by high-frequency, modulation pulses (MP) at different stages of the system dynamics driven by saturation pulses (SP) or actinic light (AL) [25, 26]. Thus, the relative yield of fluorescence can be measured in the presence of illumination or can be conducted at field condition [5]. Fundamentally, the CF method determines values associated with basal (F0 and F0′) and maximal (Fm and Fm′) fluorescence on dark and light-adapted leaves from which it has been possible to derive parameters to estimate specific responses of the energy dissipation through the photochemical pathway [5]. Experimentally, F0, F0′, Fm, and Fm′ are obtained from a sequence of light supplying to different intensities which simulated the change from darkness to light adaptation through photosynthetic excitation (Figure 2). For obtaining F0, the dark-adapted leaf is illuminated with weak, modulated measuring pulse (L1 = 0.03 μmol m−2 s−1). Immediately, a light saturate pulse (SP = 8000 μmol m−2 s−1) is applied for 0.8 s to ensure maximal fluorescence emissions (Fm). Subsequently, on light-adapted leaves, the steady-state fluorescence yield (Ft) is measured following a saturating light pulse (SP = 8000 μmol m−2 s−1, 0.8 s) that was applied to achieve the light-adapted maximal fluorescence (Fm′). The actinic light (AL) is then turned off and far-red illumination was applied (2 μmol m−2 s−1) to measure the light-adapted basal fluorescence (F0′) [7].
The second method is based on the increase in the CF yield observed when leaves pass through dark to light in a short time period. This induction and fast dynamic changes of CF occur when dark-adapted samples are exposed to light known as Kautsky’s effect, as explained above [27], and it is observed as a polyphasic curve, giving information about the efficiency of electron transport through PSII [28, 29]. The CF variations on the OJIP induction curve are also well-known as the OJIP-test. From the O-step to the J-step, it reflects high-order nonlinear dynamics of PSII resulting from light excitation, energy transfer, energy dissipation, and photochemical reactions [25], see Table 1 for more details. The technique is based on the theory that energy flux through PSII reaction centers can be quantified to provide information about structure and function of the photosynthetic apparatus [33].

Several CF parameters are commonly used to evaluate the performance of the photosynthetic apparatus, such as the maximum quantum yield of photosystem II (PSII), often represented as the Fv/Fm, provides information about the maximum efficiency of PSII photochemistry [5]. The effective quantum yield of PSII (ΦPSII) reflects the actual efficiency of light energy conversion in PSII [2] and non-photochemical quenching (NPQ) that represents the dissipation of excess light energy as heat, thereby protecting the photosynthetic machinery from photodamage [34]. The increases in non-photochemical quenching (measured as NPQ and/or

The CF parameters obtained from measurements can provide valuable information about the plant’s photosynthetic efficiency, tolerance to stress (abiotic and biotic), or normal physiological condition [6, 35]. Therefore, measuring changes in fluorescence parameters such as Fv/Fm, ΦPSII, and NPQ provides insights into the functionality and regulation of PSII and can indicate early stress detection [34]. In this context, the NPQ represents the protective mechanism employed by plants to dissipate excess absorbed light energy as heat, reducing the potential for photodamage [22]. In addition, the NPQ is influenced by factors such as light intensity, temperature, and the availability of energy sinks within the plant [36]. In practice, the NPQ determination requires leaves’ full adaptation to darkness in such a way it reflects the energy dissipation capacity in excess, especially under stress conditions [6]. Recently Tietz et al. [37] proposed the characterization a new set of parameters, NPQ (T), that can be used without dark adaptation and can be rapidly applied during steady-state illumination, potentially even under field conditions.
On the other hand, in the last years, with the developments in optical sensors, the CF imaging (CFI) technique emerged as a powerful tool to study plants under different growth conditions, especially stress factors. In this case, the fluorescence spectral considers the wavelength from UV to infrared, allowing the examination of the spectral region’s keys for the plant’s physiology responses. In addition, the physical characteristic is related to the emission of fluorescence when the energy is absorbed in the UV region, invisible to the human eye, and posterity is emitted in the visible region and can facilitate obtaining images [38]. Basically, a CFI system utilizes a camera with a long-pass filter, while hindering shorter wavelengths. From the images captured, they are segmented and CF parameters are calculated for each pixel, finishing with the visualization of CF images [39]. With this technique, the obtaining of images from each parameter associated with the CF such as Fv/Fm, ΦPSII, NPQ , and ETR allows the visual exploration of changes in these parameters per area unit [40] and spatial heterogeneity distribution of CF [41]. It has been such a sensibility in this technique that the CFI sensors have been coupled to plant phenotyping systems, obtaining interesting results on indoor and outdoor platforms [10].
3. Photosynthetic alterations by pathogen infection
Under biotic stress, the CO2 assimilation in plants is severely altered by pathogens infection regardless of their lifestyles (e.g., biotrophic, necrotrophic, and hemibiotrophic) [1, 42]. The biotrophic pathogens get to grow and feed on living plant tissue colonizing plant cells undetected through mechanisms that suppress the plant responses to infection [43]. The biotrophic strategy is considered obligatory parasitism, where the pathogen establishes a molecular and physiological manipulation of the plant cell, and this way it obtains the energy for the growth, such as the causal pathogens associated with rust (e.g.,
During the plant-pathogen interactions, plants infected by pathogens have reported reductions in CO2 assimilation, stomatal dynamic alterations (stomatal closure), chronic inhibition of the photosystems, higher dissipation of energy by chlorophyll a fluorescence (non-photochemical mechanisms), alterations in the concentration of photosynthetic pigments, chloroplasts structural damage, losses in leaf area index, changes in the source-sink ratio, and changes in the profiles of genes, proteins, and metabolic related to photosynthesis [1, 8, 9, 52]. The pathogen infection in the foliar tissue causes loss in the sunlight conduction capacity due to the cellular damage affecting the photosynthetic activity and consequent development of chlorotic and necrotic zones product of the action of hydrolytic enzymes, non-host selective toxins, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) [1, 53]. While, the plant cell after detection of the pathogen, genes related to photosynthesis are transcript down-regulated to protect the photosynthetic apparatus against the oxidative damage [1, 42].
CO2 assimilation by the photosynthetic process is a permanent source of primary metabolism, and their products are the main energetic nutrient for pathogens colonizing plant tissues, as well as molecules related to metabolic pathways from secondary metabolism [1, 54]. Studies performed in the last 20 years have allowed understanding how pathogens reprogram the metabolic flux of the carbohydrate’s metabolism in detriment of the plant growth and yield demands [1, 8, 42, 54]. From the metabolic perspective, several pathogens rapidly metabolize sucrose through invertase enzymes which hydrolyze sucrose to fructose and glucose increasing the hexoses pool [8, 14, 55]. Metabolites such as fructose, glucose, and hexoses are energetic substrates for other metabolic pathways more complex that under biotic stress those molecules become a nutrient source for pathogens; however, alterations in the sugar concentrations induce the expression of defense genes and cell death considering that sugars act as signaling molecules to regulate the expression of some genes [56]. In the case of foliar pathogens, increases on the invertases activities cause changes in the source-sink relationship dynamic [14, 23, 57].
On the other hand, studies have reported that the damage caused by pathogens on leaves led to significant reductions in the net CO2 assimilation rate (
Studies focused on energy dissipation through CF have allowed an understanding of the physiological events that happened during the asymptomatic and symptomatic disease phases. It is well-known that the Fv/Fm index is the most extensively utilized chlorophyll a fluorescence parameter stress level determination of abiotic and biotic factors [2]. Under non-stressed conditions, healthy leaves show Fv/Fm values around 0.80–0.83, while inferior Fv/Fm values indicate that a proportion of photosystem II (PSII) reaction centers have been harmed, which induces the photo-inhibitory effect on the photosynthetic machinery and is often led to oxidative stress on plants [63, 64]. In practice, the Fv/Fm parameter is a powerful tool for judging plant photochemical capacity because it acts as a stress indicator for plants; in other words, Fv/Fm measures the operational capacity of the leaf to perform photosynthesis [2, 5, 63, 64].
In the plant pathology field, the use of Fv/Fm has been efficient to measure the pathogen infection damage on the photosynthetic response depending on pathogen lifestyles [10]. However, CF parameters related to photochemical and non-photochemical energy dissipation also have showed interesting findings in plants infected. For instance, in coffee plants with rust symptoms, the values of the yield for dissipation by down-regulation [Y(NPQ) = (Fs/Fm′) – (Fs/Fm)] and the yield for other non-photochemical (non-regulated) losses [Y(NO) = Fs/Fm] were lower and higher, respectively, for the inoculated plants compared to non-inoculated plants, suggesting that
In the plant resistance field, the photosynthetic damage leads to intrinsic reductions in the defense capacity against the pathogen, and it can reach a higher intensification when abiotic stress factors such as drought, high temperature, or nutritional deficiency/excess participate along the biotic interaction [8, 67, 68]. As known, studies demonstrated that pathogens secret their effectors for linking to receptor specifics in chloroplasts looking for a reduction drastic in the ROS controlling the plant defense mechanisms, suggesting the crucial role of the photosynthetic machinery in the basal plant resistance against pathogen infection [69]. In this sense, the manipulation of photosynthetic activity using photosynthesis inhibitor-specific (DCMU) in wheat cultivars with differential basal resistance to
In short, photosynthesis is affected by pathogen infections, and their effects led to reductions in CO2 assimilation, losses in growth, and crop yield, suggesting that just like abiotic stress, biotic factors threaten food production, as has been reported from the famine in Ireland at XVIII caused by the potato blight epidemic. For the above reasons, deep knowledge about the pathogen strategies to cause disease in plants and how they affect plant metabolism is crucial to designing management alternatives in all fields of agronomy.
4. CF tool to study the plant-pathogen interaction
The use of CF tools in recent years has revealed the utility of this tool from a plant pathology perspective, and CF imaging (CFI) techniques have been used in several plant pathology interactions. However, the equipment for CFI can be expensive, and it is necessary to handle due to the dark adaptation, increasing the time required with a large numbers of plants to test [6]. Today, portable instruments are commercially available being used at field conditions. For instance, CF using the OJIP-test, that is, an induction curve from the O-step to the J-step reflects high-order nonlinear dynamics of PSII resulting from light excitation, energy transfer, energy dissipation, and photochemical reactions (Table 1) [33]. As a result, OJIP-test is fast, non-invasive, and sensitive technic [6, 11], becoming an alternative for physiological and plant pathogen studies. Also, this technique allows screening and phenotyping large number of plants (e.g., approximately 500 plants per day) under field conditions, as was reported by Ajigboye et al. [71].
Both techniques offer important information on the PSII damage caused by the infection of pathogens in plants; however, CFI has been more frequently used to detect CF changes in response to foliar diseases in different genotypes due to their visual advantages [8, 40, 72]. In this context, CFI has been used to screen resistant wheat genotypes as well as the early detection of leaf rust caused by
On the other hand, Fv/Fm and Y(II) parameters were sensible on coffee leaves inoculated with
The combination of the CFI with other techniques allows an important way to study plant-pathogen interaction. In a study, combining CFI and leaf thermography from thermal infrared (TIR) imaging, among sweet potatoes infected by Sweet potato feathery mottle virus (SPFMV, genus Potyvirus) and Sweet potato chlorotic stunt virus (SPCSV, genus Crinivirus), demonstrated that the Fv/Fm and
The detection of some diseases in the most cases results in a difficult task due to the complexity between symptomatology observed. In this respect, the combination of CFI and ROS activities detects brown spot and anthracnose in cucumber plants. The difference of the activity levels of the ROS-scavenging enzymes and CFI parameters discriminated cucumber diseases [81]. Likewise, an important disease in citrus such as Citrus Huanglongbing (HLB) had been rapidly detected with high accuracy with the combination of reflectance images and multicolor fluorescence images, which relate to photosynthesis and secondary metabolites [82]. The study demonstrated that the combination of the techniques can effectively detect HLB disease in different infected statuses and cultivars, making it a promising tool for high-throughput HLB disease detection in citrus orchards. Currently, the increases in the interest on artificial intelligent (IA) in the recent years demonstrated the versatility of the CFI for the development of possible tools that discriminate biotic stress. Recently, Sapoukhina et al. [83] proposed a new methodology to develop a data set to generate images from CFI of plants infected by
On the other hand, the CF by OJIP-test has been used in several studies to determinate the effects over PSII performance. In this case, Ajigboye et al. [11] using CF determines that existing changes related to the maximum efficiency of PSII photochemistry (Fv′/Fm′), as well as flux of dissipated (DIo/RC), trapped (TRo/RC), or absorbed (ABS/RC) energy per active reaction centers during the attack of necrotrophic pathogens such as
In another study, the use of OJIP-test showed that DIo/RC parameter is the best indicator for the diagnosis of
The CF methodology has been successful in several studies to determine the effect of fungicides on PSII activity during disease control, as mentioned above (Figure 4). For instance, the use a fungicide such as isopyrazam and epoxiconazole increased PSII efficiency, ameliorate biomass and grain yield, and reduce disease pressure. Also, the two fungicides increased the efficiency of PSII photochemistry (Fv’/Fm′), as well as improved photosynthetic gas exchange and increased rates of electron transport [71]. In another study, the application of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) in
Additionally, this tool can be used for phenotyping in breeding programs. In this context, a study conducted by Suarez et al. [89] using CF determination showed that common bean lines induced by biotic stress can be classified as resistant or susceptible phenotypes according to the changes in F0, Fm, and consequent alteration in Fv/Fm. In barley genotypes infected with
5. Conclusions
The CF is a versatile technique that offers valuable insights into the efficiency and performance of the photosynthetic apparatus. With advancements in methodology and instrumentation, the CF has become an indispensable tool in plant science research, specifically in the plant pathology field.
The measurement setup, parameters obtained, and data interpretation are crucial aspects of the Chl a fluorescence methodology. Researchers employ specialized fluorometers, measure fluorescence parameters such as Fv/Fm, ΦPSII, and NPQ , and interpret the obtained data in conjunction with other physiological measurements for biotic stress detection. However, other parameters have shown high sensitivity depending on the pathosystem, so more studies are necessary for confirming responses and developing new research approaches to improve our knowledge about pathogen infection strategies. Plant physiologists and plant pathologists, as well as plant breeders, hope that, in the next few years, new advances in CF technology will allow a higher understanding of plant responses under pathogen infection, as well as become a powerful tool to support the disease management in issues related to fast detection, evaluation of efficiency in control strategies, and also improving the selection criteria for resistant phenotypes to disease within plant breeding programs.
