The objective of this study was to develop soybean lines adapted to low light intensity for intercropping with rubber trees. The experiment was conducted in the University Farm experimental field in Cikabayan, from September to December 2007. A total of 67 advanced (F7) soybean lines were evaluated under shading and open field in an Augmented Design experiment. Parental lines Ceneng, Pangrango, Godek and Slamet were used as control. The results showed that the number of filled pod has the highest direct effect on yield (0.552). Soybean lines selected for tolerance to low light intensity based on number of filled pod are PG-36-8, CP 32-1, CG, 23-7, CS-38-1, CS- 45-4, CS-52-1, GC- 22-10.

At the University of Wisconsin Biotron facility potted plants of S. tuberosum were frozen slowly (cooling rate of 1°C/h) to -2°C. Following thaw, plants were subjected to either high light (400 umol m-2s-1) or low light (100 umol m-2 s-1). High light caused greater damage which appeared as bleaching of the upper leaves in 2 days following thaw. In another study excised paired leaflet halves of S. tuberosum and S. commersonii were subjected to damaging but sublethal freezing temperatures and thawed either fast (on ice) or slowly (1°C/h). Membrane damage (% ion leakage) was about 2x higher at fast thaw as compared to slow thaw in both cold acclimated and non acclimated tissue. There was greater photosynthetic impairment at slow thaw rate than fast in the non acclimated state, but following acclimation fast thaw was more damaging to photosynthetic function. Respiration in general was less sensitive to freeze-thaw stress as compared to photosynthesis and cell membranes. Our results show that we could benefit from taking into consideration thaw rate and post-thaw light intensity in developing frost protection plans.

In the production of astaxanthin from Haematococcus pluvialis, the process of growing algal biomass in the vegetative green stage is an indispensable step in both suspended and immobilized cultivations. The green algal biomass is usually cultured in a suspension under a low light intensity. However, for astaxanthin accumulation, the microalgae need to be centrifuged and transferred to a new medium or culture system, a significant difficulty when upscaling astaxanthin production. In this research, a small-scale angled twin-layer porous substrate photobioreactor (TL-PSBR) was used to cultivate green stage biomass of H. pluvialis. Under low light intensities of 20–80 µmol photons m−2·s−1, algae in the biofilm consisted exclusively of non-motile vegetative cells (green palmella cells) after ten days of culturing. The optimal initial biomass density was 6.5 g·m−2, and the dry biomass productivity at a light intensity of 80 µmol photons m−2·s−1 was 6.5 g·m−2·d−1. The green stage biomass of H. pluvialis created in this small-scale angled TL-PSBR can be easily harvested and directly used as the source of material for the inoculation of a pilot-scale TL-PSBR for the production of astaxanthin.

In the symbiotic association between the prokaryotic green alga Prochloron and three didemnid host species (Diplosoma similis, Lissoclinum bistratum, Trididemnum cyclops), between 6 and 51 % of the total carbon fixed during exposure for 1 h to H14CO3- in the light (150 �E m-2 s-1) becomes associated with the host tissue. Dark fixation of 14CO2 in these ascidian species and in Lissoclinum punctatum never exceeds 6% of photosynthetic fixation at saturating light intensity. The corresponding values for dark fixation of 14CO2 in isolated Prochloron cells fall within the same range. There is very little excretion of photosynthate from whole colonies of the above ascidian species nor from Didemnum molle, Lissoclinum voeltzkowi and Trididemnum miniatum (usually less than 1 % of total photosynthate at saturation light intensity), suggesting an efficient transfer mechanism from Prochloron to host. Evidence from pulse-chase experiments suggests that transfer probably involves the early products of photosynthesis. The extent of transfer of photosynthate between Prochloron and T. cyclops varies with the rate of photosynthetic 14CO2 fixation into the whole colony but there is some transfer even at low light intensities, which strongly limit photosynthesis.

Light is a major environmental factor limiting the growth and survival of plants. The heterogeneity of the light environment after gap formation in forest influences the leaf chlorophyll contents, net photosynthetic rate (Pn), and chlorophyll fluorescence, thus influencing the growth and regeneration of Castanopsis kawakamii seedlings. The aim of this study was to explore the effects of weak light on the photosynthetic physiology of C. kawakamii seedlings in forest gaps and non-gaps. The results showed that (1) the contents of chlorophyll a (Chl-a), chlorophyll b (Chl-b), and total chlorophyll (Chl-T) in forest gaps were lower than in non-gaps. Seedlings tended to increase chlorophyll content to absorb light energy to adapt to low light intensity in non-gap environments. (2) The Pn values of C. kawakamii seedlings in forest gaps were significantly higher than in non-gaps, and forest gaps could improve the seedlings’ photosynthetic capacity. (3) The C. kawakamii seedlings in forest gaps were more sensitive to weak light and control group treatment, especially the tall seedlings, indicating that seedlings require more light to satisfy their growth needs in the winter. The seedlings in non-gaps demonstrated better adaptability to low light intensity. The light intensity was not adequate in weak light conditions and limited seedling growth. We suggest that partial forest selection cutting could improve light intensity in non-gaps, thus promoting seedling growth and regeneration of C. kawakamii more effectively in this forest.


In a tank filled with a suspension of indian ink in tap water, a population of Daphnia magna will undergo a complete cycle of vertical migration when an overhead light source is cycli­cally varied in intensity. A ‘dawn rise’ to the surface at low intensity is followed by the descent of the animals to a characteristic maximum depth. The animals rise to the surface again as the light decreases, and finally show a typical midnight sinking. The light intensities at the level of the animals in this experiment are of the same order as those which have been reported in field observations; the time course of the movement also repeats the natural conditions in the field. The process is independent of the duration of the cycle and is related only to the variation in overhead light intensity. At low light intensity the movement of the animal is determined solely by positive photo-kinesis; the dawn rise is a manifestation of this, and is independent of the direction of the light. At high light intensities there is an orientation response which is superimposed upon an alternating positive (photokinetic) phase and a negative phase during which movement is inhibited. The fully oriented animal shows a special type of positive and negative phototaxis, moving towards the light at reduced light intensities and away from it when the light intensity is increased. In this condition it follows a zone of optimum light intensity with some exactness. Experiments show that an animal in this fully oriented condition will respond to the slow changes of intensity characteristic of the diurnal cycle, while being little affected by tran­sient changes of considerable magnitude.

The production of extracellular carbohydrate has been studied in Isochrysis galbana and Prymnesium parvum in axenic culture. Increased extracellular production of carbohydrate occurred at reduced and increased salinity, low light intensity and under conditions of nitrogen starvation in Isochrysis, and in some cases appeared to be associated with the sedimentation of the cells from stagnant culture. Extracellular carbohydrate production was found to be greatest during the early and later stages in growth and dropped to a minimum during the mid-growth phase. Experiments indicated that the cells were not being damaged during harvesting of the cultures. A close similarity was found between the monosaccharide components of the intra- and extracellular carbohydrate after acid hydrolysis; both contained glucose, galactose, arabinose, xylose and ribose. It is suggested that the production of most of the extracellular carbohydrate is due to the passive release of organic matter from dead or dying cells.

A computerized image analysis package (ImagePro+) was evaluated as an alternative method for morphometric analysis of electron micrographs of microalgal cells. The morphometric analysis was demonstrated with micrographs of the marine alga Nannochloropsis sp. grown under high and low light intensity. We applied the ImagePro+ package to estimate the relative volume of an organelle based on the ratio of perimeters of the organelle and the cell. The measurements included the volumes of chloroplasts, mitochondria, nuclei, vacuoles, and accumulation bodies, all relative to cell volume. The length of thylakoids was measured using the same package. The results obtained by ImagePro+ were compared to those of the traditional manual and laborious method involving the superimposition of an array of short lines on the micrograph. A high correlation between the methods was found. The following correlations were found for chloroplast, nucleus, and accumulation bodies: 0.96, 0.92, and 0.75, respectively. The correlation between length of thylakoids (ImagePro+) and surface area of thylakoids (superimposition) was 0.82.
