- Observation The ester pool copied the protochlorophyllide pool in etiolated higher plants.
- Observation The ester pool contained both monovinyl and divinyl esters.
- Observation The pigments had similar emission maxima.
- Method / resource The pigments were partly separated on polyethylene thin layers.
