Porphyridium purpureum and Porphyra yezoensis were cultured as described elsewhere (1). Rhodella violacea was grown in a modified Jones-medium (3). 

The ability to reduce the apparent quantum yield of PSI in LI as described for Porphyridium purpureum and Porphyra yezoensis (1) was found as a general phenomenon in many red algae (Porphyra umbilicalis, Porphyridium aerugineum, Rhodella violacea, Palmaria palmata and Chondrus crispus).
