Other claims from this paper (7)
- Association P. veris assimilation rates were better than those of P. vulgaris at all light intensities.
- Association Hybrids photosynthesised similarly well to P. veris at lower light intensities.
- Association Hybrids showed intermediate photosynthetic performance between the parent species at higher light intensities.
- Association The ratio of total carotenoids to total chlorophylls was higher in P. veris than in P. vulgaris.
- Association The hybrid showed considerable similarity to P. vulgaris in the pigment parameters, except the carotenoid ratio.
- Intervention effect After the HLG treatment, photoinhibition was lower in P. veris than in the other two taxa.
- Mechanism The acclimation differences are interpreted to explain the habitat preference difference between the parent species, and hybrids occupying more open sites.
