Other claims from this paper (11)
- Association Lower light reduced leaf and palisade and spongy tissue thickness in most plants.
- Association Lower light reduced net photosynthetic rate and stomatal conductance in most plants.
- Association Lower light reduced Fv/Fm and Fv′/Fm′ in most plants.
- Association Lower light increased leaf area, chlorophyll and malondialdehyde content in most plants.
- Association Antioxidant enzyme activity rose as light declined.
- Observation Overall plasticity ranked O. japonicus highest, then E. japonicus, P. tobira and L. sinense.
- Observation O. japonicus had the strongest adaptability through photosynthetic and antioxidant responses.
- Mechanism E. japonicus relied on photosynthetic, anatomical and leaf area adjustment.
- Mechanism P. tobira improved light tolerance through leaf area, epidermal and physiological changes.
- Observation L. sinense had the lowest adaptability with limited antioxidant and leaf thickness adjustments.
- Recommendation The authors recommend selecting plants with strong photosynthetic and physiological plasticity for shaded viaducts.
