Robert M. Smillie; Robyn Nott PLANT PHYSIOLOGY 1982. doi:10.1104/pp.70.4.1049
Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Salt increased the fast rise in variable chlorophyll fluorescence in sugar beet leaves.
- Intervention effect Salt depressed the fast fluorescence rise in sunflower by approximately 25%.
- Intervention effect Salt stimulated the slow rate of fluorescence quenching in sunflower.
- Observation Sunflower fluorescence differences were more marked in older mature leaves.
- Intervention effect Chloroplasts from salt-treated and control sunflower leaves had similar PSII activities.
- Intervention effect Slow fluorescence quenching rate decreased in bean under salt treatment.
- Association PSII activity declined with further chlorophyll loss in bean.
- Method / resource In vivo chlorophyll fluorescence measurements can rapidly detect leaf salt stress, including reduced photosynthesis without visible symptoms.
