Fig. 1From: Joint interactions of carbon and nitrogen metabolism dominated by bicarbonate and nitrogen in Orychophragmus violaceus and Brassica napus under simulated karst habitatsPhotosynthetic characteristics of the Bn and Ov seedlings under simulated karst habitats. Pn-Photosynthetic rate, Cond-Stomatal conductivity, Tr-Transpiration, Ci-Intercellular CO2, WUE-water use efficiency, Bn-Brassica napus, and Ov-Orychophragmus violaceus. The bicarbonate was denoted as B0 (HCO3−: 0 mM), and B10 (HCO3−:10 mM). Nitrogen was denoted as N0(no nitrogen), N19 (nitrate:ammonium = 1 mM: 9 mM), N55 (nitrate:ammonium = 5 mM: 5 mM), and N91 (nitrate:ammonium = 9 mM: 1 mM). Each value represents the mean ± SD (n = 3). The mean values marked with different letters (a,b,c,d) significantly differ at P < 0.05Back to article page
