Physiological characteristics of A. thaliana under different elevated temperature treatments. a Typical A. thaliana plants at the rosette growth stage 30 days after sowing. b The timeline for control (CK), prolonged warming (PW) and heat shock (HS) treatments showing a relatively prolonged period of warming (orange) for 7 days and a short-term heat shock (red) for 6 h. c Stomatal conductance, (d) transpiration rate, (e) photosynthetic rate, (f) photochemical quenching (qP), and (g) non-photochemical quenching (qN) were measured with a LI-6400XT Portable Photosynthesis System. h Soluble proteins, (i) soluble sugars, (j) hydrogen peroxide, the activities of (k) catalase (CAT), (l) superoxide dismutase (SOD) and (m) peroxidase (POD) in the leaves were determined at the end of the elevated temperature treatments. CK: control; PW: prolonged warming; HS: heat shock. Error bars represent mean ± S.D. (c)-(g), n = 8, (h-m), n = 3, */**/***: p < 0.05/0.01/0.001, respectively
