Abstract
Light dependent xanthophyll conversions are dependent on the species, the h ealth status of the photosynthetic apparatus, and on environmental conditio ns in general. The present work compiles data from different field studies on different tree species to reveal common physiological principles. Multiv ariate statistical methods allow an evaluation of response patterns underly ing these pigment changes in different environmental conditions.
