Photosynthetic Activity in Marine and Brackish Water Strains of Fucus vesiculosus and Fucus radicans (Phaeophyceae) at Different Light Qualities
Abstract This study investigates the effects of different light qualities on the photosynthetic capacity of the brown algae Fucus vesiculosus , from the Norwegian Sea, and Fucus radicans and F. vesiculosus , from the Bothnian Sea. The electron transport rates (ETR) obtained for F. vesiculosus from t...

The electron transport rates (ETR) obtained for F. vesiculosus from the Norwegian Sea showed significantly higher levels of light saturation compared with both species of algae from the Bothnian Sea.

After 1 week in the Bothnian Sea species and after 2 weeks in F. vesiculosus from the Norwegian Sea, the photosynthetic efficiency ( α ) was significantly higher regardless of light quality and irradiance compared with the initial values.
