From: Cold-acclimation limits low temperature induced photoinhibition by promoting a higher photochemical quantum yield and a more effective PSII restoration in darkness in the Antarctic rather than the Andean ecotype of Colobanthus quitensis Kunt Bartl (Cariophyllaceae)

Figure 1

Effect of cold acclimation on recovery kinetics of Fv/Fm under light (A,B) and dark (C,D) from PhT in plants of both ecotypes of C. quitensis . Recovery was monitored after 1, 4, 9, and 18 hours at 4°C. Mean values ± SE were calculated from five independent measurements of different individual. Different letters represent significant differences between growing conditions, ecotypes and treatment P<0.05 using three-way ANOVA. * indicated significant differences between low light (50 μmol photons m-2 s-1) and dark recovery, for each ecotype and growth temperature condition, P<0.05 performed by one-way ANOVA.
