PGRL1-dependent cyclic electron transport (CET) around photosystem I (PSI) plays important roles in response to different stresses, including high light. Although the function of PGRL1 in higher plants and green algae have been thoroughly investigated, little information is available on the molecular mechanism of PGRL1 in diatoms. We created PGRL1 overexpression and knockdown transformants of Phaeodactylum tricornutum, the diatom model species, and investigated the impact on growth and photosynthesis under constant and fluctuating light conditions. PGRL1 over-accumulation resulted in significant decreases in growth rate and apparent photosystem II (PSII) activity and led to an opposing change of apparent PSII activity when turning to high light, demonstrating a similar influence on photosynthesis as a PSII inhibitor. Our results suggested that PGRL1 overexpression can reduce apparent efficiency of PSII and inhibit growth in P. tricornutum. These findings provide physiological evidence that accumulation of PGRL1 mainly functions around PSII instead of PSI.
