Technical Specifications
Parameters Measured and Protocols included:
Y(II):
Quantum Photosynthetic Yield of PSII (or F/FM' or Y).
ETR:
Electron transport rate (w/optional clip).
PAR:
Photosynthetically Active Region value (with optional PAR clip).
T:
Leaf temperature (with optional PAR clip).
FV/FM:
Maximum Photochemical efficiency of PSII.
FV/FO:
A more sensitive detector of stress than FV/FM, but it does not measure plant efficiency.
FO:
Minimum fluorescence.
FM:
Maximal fluorescence.
FV:
Variable fluorescence.
FMS (or FM'):
Maximal fluorescence with actinic illumination at steady state fluorescence.
FS (or F):
Fluorescence under steady state conditions (prior to saturation pulse).
RLC (Rapid light curves):
rETRMAX:
A measure of a leaf's photosynthetic capacity or maximum electron transport rate a is the initial slope of line at low PAR values created by relating ETR to PAR. It provides a measure of quantum efficiency.
Ik=rETRMAX/α:
A measurement of the light intensity where light saturation dominates, or the minimum saturation level.
I:
PAR light intensity at ETRMAX.
