Abstract

Abstract δ‐Aminolevulinic acid supplied to dark grown isolated leaves or wheat causes an accumulation of protochlorophyllide which is only partly transformed to chlorophyllide α in continuous light At the same time a considerable photodestruction of both pigments takes place. By a suitable combinations of short lights flashes and dark periods it is possible, however, to obtain at least double the amount of the protochlorophyllide transformed without photodestruction. The transformation isshown to be dependent on the dark interval between the light flashes. Possible connections with the formation of the protein part of the protochlorophyllide holochrome are discussed.
