| Abstract: | The activity of NADP and O2 photoreduction by water is essentially higher in chloroplasts isolated from pea seedlings (Pisum sativum L.) grown under blue light as compared with that from plants grown under red light. In contrast, the photoreduction of NADP and O2 with photosystem I only is practically the same or even lower in chloroplasts isolated from plants grown under blue light. The addition of plastocyanin does not affect the rate or the extent of NADP photoreduction by water in the chloroplasts isolated from plants grown under blue light, whereas it sharply activates NADP reduction in the chloroplasts isolated from plants grown under red light. The extent of the light-induced oxidation of cytochrome f is appreciably higher in chloroplasts isolated from plants grown under blue light. Cytochrome b559 plays the predominant role in the oxidoreductive reactions of these chloroplasts. Furthermore, the fluorescence measurements indicate more effective transfer of excitation energy from chlorophyll to the photosystem II reaction center in chloroplasts isolated from plants grown under blue light. |
