  1. Values are presented as the mean ± SE of 3 replicates. The independent-samples T test was used for comparison analysis. Superscript a and b denote statistically significant differences (p < 0.05) in the corresponding parameters between the white type and green type. Chl a Chlorophyll a, Chl b Chlorophyll b, Chl a+b Chlorophyll a+b, Chl a/b The ratio of chlorophyll a to chlorophyll b, Fv/Fm Maximum photochemical quantum yield of PS, Y(PSII) Effective photochemical quantum yield of PS II, FW Fresh weight, W The white type, G The green type
