A green alga, Chlorococcum littorale, has a tolerance to extremely high-CO2 conditions (Kodama et al., J. Marine Biotech. 1 (1993) 21-25). In order to elucidate the mechanism underlying the resistance to such high CO2 levels, we compared the changes in excitation energy distribution between photosys
