Newly developed method allowed as to measure spectral characteristic of fluorescence induction for a model organism, Synechococcus sp. (PCC 7942). Base on this new experimental approach, we have found that: (i) the main chlorophyll (Chl) a emission band around 685 nm (Photosystem (PS) II emission) exhibits typical fast (OPS) and slow (SMT) FI kinetics with both orange (622 nm) and blue (464 nm) excitation. (ii) Similar kinetics are exhibited for its far-red emission satellite band centered at 745 nm, where the PS II contribution predominates. (iii) A significant OPS-SMT-type kinetics of C-phycocyanin emission at 650 nm are observed with the blue light excitation. The induction of F650 was not caused by an admixture of the F685 fluorescence and thus our data show light-inducible and dark-reversible changes of phycobilin fluorescence in vivo
