Abstract

Monitoring prompt chlorophyll fluorescence (F) by making consecutive pulse amplitude modulation (PAM) measurements is a noninvasive, nondestructive, potentially high-throughput technique for evaluating circadian rhythms in diverse plant species. The technique is also less labor-intensive than many others currently used and requires no transgenic procedures.

Keywords: Chlorophyll fluorescence; Circadian; Photosynthesis.
