The effect of [K.sub.2]S[O.sub.4] on this variable can be explained by the fact that S participates in chlorophyll synthesis and formation of
ferredoxin, which acts as electron carrier in photosynthesis, thus favoring the accumulation of carbohydrates and other nitrogen compounds (LESTER et al., 2005), since ascorbic acid is synthesized from sugars produced in the photosynthesis.

The
ferredoxin reductase gene is regulated by the p53 family and sensitizes cells to oxidative stress-induced apoptosis.

Sulfur atoms are located in compartments of the electron transfer chain and in carriers of reducing power generated by the photosynthetic electron transfer (e.g.,
ferredoxin).

In addition, under high irradiance pseudocyclic electron transport (Mehler reaction) with the transfer of electrons from the reduced
ferredoxin at the donor site of PSI to oxygen instead of [NADP.sup.+] occurs (Robinson, 1988).
