Summary
PAM fluorometry was used to measure changes in photosynthetic competency in whole green bell peppers. Three photosynthetic characteristics could be measured by this method: quantum yield, photochemical quenching and nonphotochemical quenching. The results indicate that PAM fluorometry can measure chilling injury nondestructively before tissue damage is visible in green peppers.
