Question

What does DCMU stops?

  1. PS-I 
  2. Oxidative phosphorylation
  3. PS-II
  4. It obliterates chloroplasts.

hintHint:

It is also referred to as water-plastoquinone oxidoreductase.

The correct answer is: PS-II


    • DCMU refers to 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea
    • DCMU is considered as an algicide or herbicide
    • DCMU inhibits carbon dioxide fixation and photosystem II
    • DCMU inhibits the QB plastoquinone binding site of photosystem II, which in turn does not allow the flow of electrons from photosystem II to plastoquinone
