Response of intact cyanobacterial cells and their photosynthetic apparatus to Cd2+ ion treatment

Abstract

Intact cells of Synechococcus elongatus were treated with different concentrations of CdCl2 for 24 h. Photosystem 1 activity was less sensitive to the effect of Cd ions than photosystem 2 activity measured in intact cells and in isol.thylakoid m
