| Abstract: | Summary A photoreversible reaction, previously found only in plants and fungi, has now been found in an animal system. Activation of development in diapausing embryos ofDaphnia pulex, induced with white light, was suppressed with subsequent exposure to narrow-band (470 nm) or wide-band (410–525 nm) blue light. Pulses of wide-band blue light repeatedly reversed white light activation. |
