摘要: — The isolation of a mutant, strain PM-9, Rhodopseudonionus spheroides with an abnormal complement carotenoid pigments is described. PM-9 accumulates phytoene, phytofluene, ζ-carotene and neurosporene. Semi-aerobic cultures form more neurosporene relative to total carotenoids than do photo-synthetic cultures. PM-9 killed on exposure light oxygen. By making use the effect oxygen nature in we have shown that these not directly influence vivo spectrum bacteriochlorophyll. Diphenylamine inhibits synthesis coloured Rhodopseudonionos gelatinosa but does change bacteriochlorophyll spectrum.
