Other claims from this paper (4)
- Observation The Mesotaenium pigment had absorption peaks at 649 and 710 nm for the Pr and Pfr forms.
- Intervention effect Red and far-red light transformed the Mesotaenium pigment with reversibility and efficiency very similar to phytochrome from etiolated higher-plant seedlings.
- Observation The absorption maxima of the Sphaerocarpos and Mesotaenium pigments differ.
- Observation The described methods allow efficient separation of phytochrome from highly pigmented light-grown Sphaerocarpos material.
