The inhibition of ATP synthesis, proton uptake, and electron transport (basal, phosphorylating, and uncoupled) from water to methylviologen by ivalin (a naturally occurring sesquiterpene lactone in Zaluzania triloba and Iva microcephala) indicates that it acts as electron transport inhibitor. Since photosystem I and electron transport from DPC to QA were not affected, while the electron flow of uncoupled photosystem II from H2O to DAD and from water to silicomolybdate was inhibited, we concluded that the site of inhibition of ivalin is located at the oxygen evolution level. Key words: oxygen evolution, ivalin, photosynthesis, sesquiterpene lactone.
