It is suggested that photophobic responses caused by a sudden step-down in light intensity require the presence of cations in the blue-green alga, Phormidium uncinatum. Drastic removal of cations abolishes the phobic response, which recovers after addition of Ca 2 + ions. Calcium can be substituted
Light-induced potential changes have been measured in the filamentous blue-green alga Phormidium uncinatum both intracellularly and between the two ends ofa trichome. There is evidence that these potential changes are correlated with photophobic reactions in this organism. 1. The potential changes
