Fluorescence properties of the newly discovered chlorophyll (Chl) d-dominated cyanobacterium, Acaryochloris sp. strain Awaji were examined by a combination of steady state and the time-resolved fluorescence measurements. Acaryochloris sp. strain Awaji, in contrast to Acaryochloris marina MBIC 110 17, exhibited photosystem (PS) 11 fluorescence at 745 nm at room temperature and at 750 nm at - 196 degrees C with a few Chl d components in the shorter wavelength region of the maxima. PS I fluorescence was not detected by steady state measurements but was by time-resolved spectroscopy as a transient component. The results clearly indicated diversity in the antenna systems in the genus Acaryochloris that contains Chl d as major pigments. Delayed fluorescence was observed only in the Chl a fluorescence region, consistent with A. marina. This strongly suggested that the primary electron donor for the PS 11 reaction center should be Chl a, which is identical to all other oxygenic photosynthetic organisms. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V.
