Abstract

Out of the six thermoluminescence bands reported for a mature leaf, one band (Zv) appearing at the lowest temperatures is dependent on the temperature of illumination. The characteristics of this band in fresh leaf are compared with those in a leaf heated to 60° C for 5 min. It is concluded here that this band, following illumination at temperatures lower than 173 K, is part of Arnold and Azzi's Z band (Arnold, W. and Azzi, J.R. (1971) Photochem. Photobiol. 14, 233-240). However, it is a part of peak I when observed subsequent to illumination beyond 173 K. An explanation for the appearance of this band at different temperatures is proposed.
