✦ Synopsis


In-vitro irradiation of extracts of maize (Zea mays L.) coleoptiles with red light enhances phytochrome pelletability as was previously reported for Cucurbita pepo L. In neither case is this the result of an irradiation-induced increase in the level of total pelletable protein. The transformation difference spectra of bound and unbound phytochrome fractions obtained after both in-vivo and in-vitro irradiations are not significantly different. The data, therefore, do not indicate that irradiation-enhanced pelletability either in rive or in vitro results from phytochromo denaturation. Other non-photoreversible changes in the molecule external to the chromophore environment might however still account for the observed pelletability.

* Abbreviations: Pfr = far-red-absorbing form of phytoehrome; Pr = red-absorbing form of phytochrome; Ptot ~ total phytoehrome. Rmax and FRmax = peak positions (nm) in the red and far-red regions of the difference spectrum respectively. R/2' ratio = A (AA) at Rmax/A (AA) at FRmax.

We present a theory of multichannel disordered conductors by directly studying the statistical distribution of the transfer matrix for the full system. The theory is based on the general properties of the scattering system: flux conservation, time-reversal invariance, and the appropriate combination
