Sorgoleone is a photosystem II inhibitor found in sorghum. Sorgoleone binds to the QB niche of the D1 protein, inhibits photosynthetic electron transport, and does not affect photosystem I reactions. Sorgoleone reduces radicle elongation and stunts growth. Sorgoleone inhibits CO2-dependent oxygen evolution, photosynthetic O2 evolution, and mitochondrial respiration. Sorgoleone can be used as a herbicide[1][2][3].
