In the period October 2001 through November 2002 in six series parallely with physico-chemical and hydrobiological analyses, the content of photosynthetic pigments was determined in algae in the region of flow-through reservoirs of "Djerdap 1" and "Djerdap 2" on the profiles of Smederevo, Ram, Veliko Gradista, Donji Milanovac, Tekija, Kladovo and Radujevac. The samples were taken by a pump from the river midstream at the depth of 1-0 m (composite sample), while in the vegetation period April, June and September, the samples were taken at the depth of 5 m. The peak concentration of chlorophyll-a, the biological indicator of trophic condition, was recorded in the month of April in the Smederevo profile (30.2 mg/cubic meter) at the depth of 1-0 m. The lowest values of chlorophyll-a in all studied cycles were recorded in the Radujevac profile (below the dams) with the mean annual value of 1.8 mg/cubic meter. Chlorophyll-c occurs as the subdominant photosynthetic pigment. Values of chlorophyll-c were higher than chlorophyll-a in the month of June on the Donji Milanovac profile in the analysed sample taken at the depth of 5 m. Higher values of chlorophyll-b were recorded in the course of the vegetation period in the month of June on the profiles of Smederevo, Ram, Veliko Gradiste and Donji Milanovac at the depth of 1-0 m.
