— For dark adapted cells, the intensity of delayed light at the onset of a light period depends on the length of the preceding dark period. Under our experimental conditions, the exciting laser light seems to reduce the intermediate pool located between the two photosystems. If dark adapted cells are illuminated, mechanisms are established within about 20 s which appear to drain electrons from the intermediate pool.
