Verbatim
e0“Q. variabilis and Q. acutissima showed increased leaf growth, chlorophyll content and net apparent quantum yield but reduced chlorophyll a/b and carboxylation efficiency under the low light intensity.”
e1“Therefore, light absorption and light utilization efficiency were improved under the low light intensity.”

- Intervention effect Q. variabilis increased leaf growth, chlorophyll content and net apparent quantum yield under low light.
- Intervention effect Q. acutissima increased leaf growth, chlorophyll content and net apparent quantum yield under low light.
- Intervention effect Q. variabilis had reduced chlorophyll a/b and carboxylation efficiency under low light.
- Intervention effect Q. acutissima had reduced chlorophyll a/b and carboxylation efficiency under low light.
- Observation Q. mongolica showed similar responses to Q. variabilis and Q. acutissima.
- Intervention effect Q. mongolica net apparent quantum yield was reduced.
- Intervention effect Shading effects on Q. serrata were lower than on the other three oak species.
