Mutant strain 1073 of Lemna perpusilla is concluded to be blocked between plastoquinone and cytochrome f in the photosynthetic electron transport system. The location of the block is based on the following observations of activities in chloroplasts isolated from the mutant and wild-type plants. (a) Relative to wild type, electron flow rates from water to ferricyanide, 2,6-dichlorophenol indophenol or NADP were very low in the mutant, but rates of photosystem I-dependent electron flow and cyclic phosphorylation were high. (b) Chlorophyll a fluorescence induction curves for mutant and wild type were similar. (c) Silicomolybdate and lipophilic acceptors in the mutant were photoreduced at rates comparable to wild type. (d) Cytochrome f of the mutant chloroplasts was not reduced by red light, but was oxidized by red or far red light. (e) Reduction of the primary electron acceptor of photosystem II (Q) by ATP-driven reverse electron flow was not observed in the mutant.
