Evaluation of photosynthetic quantum yield is important for analyzing the phenotype of plants. Chlorophyll a fluorescence (ChlF) has been widely used to estimate plant photosynthesis and its regulatory mechanisms. The ratio of variable to maximum fluorescence, F v / F m , obtained from a ChlF induction curve, is commonly used to reflect the maximum photochemical quantum yield of photosystem II (PSII), but it is measured after a sample is dark-adapted for a long time, which limits its practical use. In this research, a least-squares support vector machine (LSSVM) model was developed to explore whether F v / F m can be determined from ChlF induction curves measured without dark adaptation. A total of 7,231 samples of 8 different experiments, under diverse conditions, were used to train the LSSVM model. Model evaluation with different samples showed excellent performance in determining F v / F m from ChlF signals without dark adaptation. Computation time for each test sample was less than 4 ms. Further, the prediction performance of test dataset was found to be very desirable: a high correlation coefficient (0.762 to 0.974); a low root mean squared error (0.005 to 0.021); and a residual prediction deviation of 1.254 to 4.933. These results clearly demonstrate that F v / F m , the widely used ChlF induction feature, can be determined from measurements without dark adaptation of samples. This will not only save experiment time but also make F v / F m useful in real-time and field applications. This work provides a high-throughput method to determine the important photosynthetic feature through ChlF for phenotyping plants.more » « less

We report on spectroscopic measurements on the
transition in neutral europium-151 and europium-153 at 459.4 nm. The center of gravity frequencies for the 151 and 153 isotopes, reported for the first time in this paper, to our knowledge, were found to be 652,389,757.16(34) MHz and 652,386,593.2(5) MHz, respectively. The hyperfine coefficients for the state were found to be , and , , which all agree with previously published results except for A(153), which shows a small discrepancy. The isotope shift is found to be 3163.8(6) MHz, which also has a discrepancy with previously published results.
