Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect Prior growth temperature had little effect on apparent photosynthesis per leaf area.
- Intervention effect Measurement temperature had little effect on apparent photosynthesis per leaf area.
- Intervention effect High growth temperature increased photosynthesis per dry weight.
- Intervention effect High-temperature leaves had a higher photosynthetic optimum temperature.
- Intervention effect High-temperature leaves had a shorter life.
- Intervention effect High-temperature leaves had lower respiration at a given measurement temperature.
- Intervention effect Low-to-high transfer increased photosynthesis in the next fully expanded leaf.
- Intervention effect High-to-low transfer decreased photosynthesis in the next fully expanded leaf.
- Observation Leaves expanding after the first post-transfer leaf had rates similar to unchanged plants.
- Intervention effect Photosynthesis rose in already expanded leaves after transfer to high temperature.
- Intervention effect Photosynthesis fell in already expanded leaves after transfer to low temperature.
