- Intervention effect Drought reduced shoot elongation, leaf production and biomass.
- Intervention effect Drought increased MDA and proline accumulation.
- Intervention effect Three days of drought rapidly reduced water content.
- Intervention effect From day five, drought significantly reduced PSII efficiency, energy trapping and electron transport.
- Intervention effect Seven days of drought increased non-photochemical energy dissipation.
- Intervention effect Rewatering restored chlorophyll fluorescence traits except F(M) to controls.
- Intervention effect Five and seven days of drought increased anthocyanin content.
