title: The effect of excited state population in photosystem II on the photoinhibition-induced changes in chlorophyll fluorescence parameters
abstract: The photoinhibition-induced changes in Photosystem II fluorescence parameters of spinach thylakoids were only slightly sensitive to the excited state population in Photosystem II antenna, as modulated by either quinone quenching or energy spillover. The possibility that this may be due to a small fraction of chlorophyll molecules which are poorly coupled to the antenna is discussed.
