  1. Four chlorophyll fluorescence parameters, including Fv/Fm, ΦPSII, 1-qL and ETR, and three photosynthetic indexes, including Pn, Ci and Gs were measured in stylo after 10 d of 5 or 400 μM MnSO4 treatments. Data are means ± standard errors (n = 4). The same letter represents no significant difference at the P = 0.05 level
