Résumé

Une incubation prolongée de chloroplastes isolés d'épinard à l'obscurité provoque un gonflement des plastides et une inhibition concomitante de leurs activités photochimiques (à l'exception de la photoréduction du ferricyanure). Un traitement lumineux accélère ces phénomènes qui, probablement, sont associés à des processus de détérioration de l'appareil photosynthétique.
