Plant Physiology 80:988-991 (1986) © 1986 American Society of Plant Biologists Flash-Induced Delayed Light Emission Patterns of Red Kidney Bean Leaves: Evidence of a New Component Dependent upon Tissue Integrity 1Boyce Thompson Institute for Plant Research at Cornell University, Ithaca, New York 14853
Studies of flash-induced delayed light emission profiles of dark-adapted intact plant tissues revealed a previously unreported component of plant luminescence. Only partially evident in intact chloroplasts and totally absent in broken chloroplasts, this peak may reflect the interaction of one or more light-activated enzyme systems with photosynthetic electron transport.
