Kiwi fruit displays chlorophyll fluorescence. A physical model was developed to reproduce the observed original fluorescence for the whole fruit, from the emission of the different parts of the kiwi fruit. The spectral distribution of fluorescence in each part of the fruit, was corrected to eliminate distortions due to light re-absorption and it was analyzed in relation to photosystem II-photos...

A method is described to determine germination by blue-light excited red fluorescence in the positively photoblastic spores of Dryopteris paleacea Sw. This fluorescence is due to chlorophyll as evidenced from 1) a fluorescence-emission spectrum in vivo, where a bright fluorescence around 675 nm is obtained only in red light (R)-irradiated spores and 2) in vitro measurements with acetone extrac...

The article highlights the results of studying critical periods in phenological development oilseed radish varieties based on use basic indicators chlorophyll fluorescence induction curve (initial (F0), plateau zone (Fpl), maximum (Fm), and stationary (Fst). This complex was applied to plants three – ‘Rayduga’, ‘Zhuravka’ ‘Lybid’ with presentation for variety due similarity obtained data. phase...

The fluorescence decay characteristics of the isolated light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b protein have been studied using low-intensity subnanosecond-resolution time-correlated single-photon counting. In the monomeric state in detergent micelles, the chlorophyll a/b protein exhibits biexponential decay (~t = 1.2 ns, ~'2 = 3.3 ns) with the two components having very similar weights. The decay para...

Fast identification of pesticide residue level in lettuce leaves plays a key role in the test of food safety. In order to identify the different concentrations pesticide residues of lettuce leaves in a fast and nondestructive way, the hyperspectra coupled with chlorophyll fluorescence spectra was used in this research. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) was used to identify the microstructu...

rainfall deficiency and the development of salinity in iran are the most important factors for using new salt and drought-resistant plants instead of conventional crops. kochia species have recently attracted the attention of researchers as a forage and fodder crop in marginal lands worldwide due to its drought and salt tolerant characteristics. this field experiment was performed at the salini...

changes in chlorophyll florescence is one of the physiological responses of plants to waterlogging stress. due to easily measured in field and its inexpensive and non-destructive characteristics, it is one of the best ways to assess different genotypes tolerance to stresses. in this experiment, trends of chlorophyll fluorescence index (fv/fm) of ‘satsuma’ mandarin (citrus unshiu) on seven roots...
