— Absorbance changes due to the photoreduction of a b ‐type cytochrome are associated with many biological blue light‐controlled processes. Evidence is presented for their causal relationship with the perception of light which induced conidia formation under conditions of starvation in Neurospora crassa mutant albino band, but not with light‐induced phase shifts of conidiation bands.
