Abstract
The actual opinions concerning the role of Cd<sup>2+</sup> in inhibition of photosynthesis have been reviewed. The light phase of photosynthesis, particularly the site of Cd<sup>2+</sup> action in the photosynthetic transport chain has been given the greatest attention. Cd<sup>2+</sup>-induced inhibition of Photosystem II activity as the result of thylakoid membrane degradation has been discussed. The present studies on Cd<sup>2+</sup>-inhibited dark reactions occurring in stroma has been analysed. Attention has been drawn to the fact that the results of studies in vitro are not always compatible with the changes found in the photosynthetic apparatus of higher plants growing in a Cd2 containing medium.
