      abstract     = {Metal toxicity on the photosystem 11 (PS 11) photochemistry
                      of the green microalga Scenedesmus obliquus was investigated
                      in vivo using a pulse-amplitude-modulated fluorometer. The
                      results demonstrated that the test metals (copper, chromium,
                      nickel, cadmium, and zinc) inhibited PS II photochemistry
                      substantially, which was clearly evident for F-0, F-v/F-m,
                      qN, and qP following 12 h of metal exposure, whereas F-m,
                      F-v/2, and F-0/F-v depicted significant alteration after
                      only I h of treatment. Thus, metals are not only found to
                      affect the initial and maximal fluorescence, maximum quantum
                      yield, photochemical and nonphotochemical quenching, and
                      plastoquionone pool but the water-splitting apparatus was
                      also significantly altered under metal stress. Among all
                      these fluorescence characteristics, the F-0/F-v registered
                      the highest sensitivity to all the five test metals, thus
                      indicating that the water-splitting apparatus of the
                      oxidizing side of PS II is the primary site of action of
                      toxic metals. This study therefore, concludes that F-0/F-v
                      ratio can be used as a powerful tool in metal-stress
                      research. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science (USA). All rights
