Abstract excerpt
We have measured fluence rate-response curves and action spectra for photogravitropism in Phycomyces wild type and in three recently isolated mutants with elevated phototropic thresholds. The action spectra were determined from least-squares fits of a sigmoidal function to the fluence rate-response data for each wavelength. The action spectrum for wild type has maxima near 383, 413, 452, and 490 nm and minima...
