Phytochromes are photoreceptors that absorb red and far-red light most strongly (600–750 nm)

they also absorb blue light (350-500 nm) and UV-A radiation (320–400 nm).

The amount of light is referred to as the fluence, which is defined as the total number of photons impinging on a unit surface area. Total fluence = fluence rate × the length of time

In dark-grown or etiolated plants, phytochrome is present in a red light–absorbing form, referred to as Pr. Pr, which to the human eye is blue, is converted by red light to a far-red light–absorbing form called Pfr, which is blue-green.
