| Abstract | Fluorescence was measured in leaves of the CAM plant Kalanchoë daigremontiana using a pulse modulation technique at room temperature. During a 12-h light period at 500 micromole photons per square meter per second (400-700 nanometers) in air containing 350 microbar CO2, the component of fluorescence quenching related to the reduction state of Q, the primary electron transport acceptor of PSII, remained fairly constant and showed that only 20% of Q were in the reduced form. The reduction state was slightly increased at the onset and at the end of the light period. By contrast, the nonphotochemical component of fluorescence quenching which is a measure of the fraction of nonradiative deexcitation underwent marked diurnal changes. Nonradiative energy conversion was low during the phase of most active malic acid decarboxylation in the middle of the light period when uptake of atmospheric CO2 was negligible, and when internal CO2 partial pressures were higher than in air; this allowed for high rates of CO2 reduction in the chloroplasts. Nonradiative energy conversion was high during the early and the late light period when atmospheric CO2 was taken up and internal CO2 partial pressures were below air level. Manipulation of the internal CO2 partial pressure during the late light period by increasing or decreasing the external CO2 partial pressure to 1710 and 105 microbar, respectively, led to changes in the magnitude of energy dependent fluorescence quenching which were consistent with the relationship between nonradiative energy dissipation and internal CO2 partial pressure observed during the diurnal cycle. Again, the reduction state of Q was hardly affected by these treatments. Thus, changes in electron transport rate during the diurnal CAM cycle at a given photon flux density lead primarily to alterations in the rate of nonradiative energy dissipation, with the reduction state of Q being maintained at a relatively low and constant level. Conditions are described under which nonphotochemical dissipation of excitation energy reaches a maximum value and the reduction state of Q is increased. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
