Usisng intact leaves, the extent of the decrease in chlorophyll a fluorescenece caused by the addition of continuous 710 nm light superimposed on modulated (20 Hz) 550nm light was used to determine the distribution of this absorbed light between photosystems I (a) and II (/3). The F o and F m levels
The chlorophyll b-containing alga Mantoniella squamata was analyzed with respect to its capacity to balance the energy distribution from the light-harvesting antenna to photosystem I or photosystem II. It was shown, that this alga is unable to alter the absorption cross section of the two photosyste
In dispersive samples, like leaves, the absorbance of pigments is intensified. The intensification is due to a longer optical path through the dispersive sample. However, in chloroplast suspensions the optical path is not much longer than in clear solutions. The factor of intensification fi (= the l
