a

Values were determined using method C in BTP-HCl buffer, pH 8, containing 25 mM NaCl. Light was supplied at 300 μmol of photons m−2 s−1. Data are the average of seven experiments ± standard deviations.

b

Control value, 6.0 ± 2.0 mM.

c

Control value, 0.06 μmol of C mg−1 Chl.

d

Control value, 11.0 ± 7.0 mM.

e

Control value, 0.23 μmol of C mg−1 Chl.
