Abstract

The genus Ocotea is one of the main genera of the Lauraceae family within species with great biological potential. This study aimed to evaluate plant metabolites as potential photosynthesis inhibitors, through Chlorophyll a (Chl a) fluorescence measurement. In vitro assay showed the potential of metabolites produced by Ocotea puberula inhibiting Chl a fluorescence.
