Rg. 3. images of luminescence (20 min integrals corrected for charge spreading; see Elhal and Wolk, 1990) from individual filaments ot SR884a at A, 0: B, 3.5; C. 6; and D, 24h; and of DR884a at E. 0 and F, 24 h. following nitrogen stepdown. Adjacent analogue images ot Ihe tilamenls have not been manipulated to eliminate an instrumentally generated honeycomb pattern (compare Elhai and Wolk. 1990; Wolk e( al.. 1993). In D, the an-ows point to mature heterocysts that are nonluminescent due either to a lack of 0?, a substrate of luciferase. within the heterocyst, or possibly to diminished transcription of hetR in mature heterocysts. Values of light flux density are presented as means ± standard deviations of the mean for areas the size of cells, after correcting for charge spreading. In A, E and F, the light flux density averaged over the filament was 0.38 + 0.03, 0.32 ± 0.06, and 0,29 ± 0.03, and outside of the filaments was 0.06 ± 0.01, 0.04 ± 0.006, and 0,05 ± 0.01 c.p.m. jxm '. respectively. In B, the light flux densities of the two bright cells toward the left, the single bright cell near the centre, the remainder of the filament, and the background were 1.69, 2.08, 2.93, 0.72 ± 0,05, and 0.18 ± 0.02 c,p,m. jxm ' , respectively. In C, the single bnght cell, the remainder of the filament and the background had respective values of light flux density of 2.50, 0.09 ± 0,02. and 0,012 ± 0,003 c,p,m. |i.m"^. In D, the central bnght cell, the left-hand and nght-hand heterocysts (arrows), the other cells, and the background had valuesof light flux density of 3.26, 0.13,0.19,0.75 ± 0,07 and 0.12 ± 0.01 c.p.m. (im"^, respectively. The bar represents 10ji.m.
