The influence of nitrite and nitrate on chlorophyll fluorescence, a very sensitive indicator for the redox state of the primary accepter of photosystem IX of photosynthesis, was studied in green algae (several species of Chlorella, and Ankistrodesmu8 braunii). In phosphate solution under an atmosphe

Fluorescence lifetimes of pure chlorophyll a monolayers were determined by single-photon counting and by picosecond spectroscopy. Neither technique could resolve its very fast decay rate, attributed to a high aggregate concentration and rapid intermolecular energy transfer. The same experiments were
A transient in chlorophyll fluorescence, which is associated with a transient in 9-aminoacridine fluorescence and a perturbation in the rate of oxygen evolution, has been observed in intact spinach chloroplasts. The results indicate that changes in the redox state of Q are, at least partially, respo
Oscillations in chlorophyll fluorescence yield were observed upon re-illumination of intact isolated pea (Pisum sativum L.) chloroplasts that had attained their maximal rate of photosynthesis and had spent a short period in darkness. The oscillations depended on the length of the previous dark perio
Dark-adapted plants must be "activated" by a flash of light before they can evolve oxygen in response to a subsequent flash. The chemiluminescence of chloroplasts, evoked by a change of pH or of oxidation potential, also requires prior illumination. Delayed fluorescence and thermoluminescenee are by
