Fluorescence emission spectra excited at 514 and 633 nm were measured at -196 degrees C on dark-grown bean leaves which had been partially greened by a repetitive series of brief xenon flashes. Excitation at 514 nm resulted in a greater relative enrichment of the 730 nm emission band of Photosystem I than was obtained with 633 nm excitation. The difference spectrum between the 514 nm excited fluorescence and the 633 nm excited fluorescence was taken to be representative of a pure Photosystem I emission spectrum at -196 degrees C. It was estimated from an extrapolation of low temperature emission spectra taken from a series of flashed leaves of different chlorophyll content that the emission from Photosystem II at 730 nm was 12% of the peak emission at 694 nm. Using this estimate, the pure Photosystem I emission spectrum was subtracted from the measured emission spectrum of a flashed leaf to give an emission spectrum representative of pure Photosystem II fluorescence at -196 degrees C. Emission spectra were also measured on flashed leaves which had been illuminated for several hours in continuous light. Appreciable amounts of the light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b protein, which has a low temperature fluorescence emission maximum at 682 nm, accumulate during greening in continuous light. The emission spectra of Photosystem I and Photosystem II were subtracted from the measured emission spectrum of such a leaf to obtain the emission spectrum of the light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b protein at -196 degrees C.
