Leaves of Vicia faba were collected from the field and the greenhouse and transmittance of epidermal peels from adaxial and abaxial sides was determined in the wavelength range from 250 to 800 nm using a spectrophotometer equipped for the measurement of turbid samples, From the same leaves, epidermal transmittance was estimated by a recently developed fluorometric method. Both methods gave highly correlated results with a slope of the regression line between both methods close to 1 and an intercept close to 0. Transmittances at around 310 nm as low as 3% were detected in the adaxial epidermis of field-grown leaves, while transmittance could be as high as 70% in the abaxial epidermis of greenhouse-grown leaves. There was a strong correlation between UV-A (ca. 366 nm) and UV-B (ca, 310 nm) transmittance detected by both methods which could be explained by the pigment composition in methanolic extracts where flavonols accounted for 90% of the absorption at 310 nm in the extract, while hydroxycinnamic acid derivatives which absorb only at the shorter wavelength constituted about 5%. It is concluded that the fluorescence method which allows rapid measurements on intact leaves can provide a quantitative estimate of epidermal transmittance for UV-B (280-320 nm) and UV-A (320-400 nm) radiation.
