9.F. Light Curve (LC) Protocol
The protocol called Light Curve (LC) was designed to acquire parameters for construction of Light
Response Curve relating the rate of photosynthesis to photon flux density. The method is based on
successive measurements of the sample exposed to a stepwise increase of light intensity. The effective
quantum yields of photosynthesis are determined under various light intensities of continuous
illumination. Measurement is based on pulse modulated fluorometry (PAM).
Several LC protocols are predefined in FP. These differ in number and duration of individual light phases
and light intensities.
