In the absence of the PSI core PSII transfers excitation energy to Lhca in < 0.5 ns.
The state transition capacity of PSI-less mutants depends on their LHCII content.
In the absence of the PSII core LHCII complexes have lifetimes of 0.5 and 2 ns.
The relative fraction of each of the two LHCII forms changes upon state transitions.
