Other claims from this paper (18)
- Intervention effect Low light inhibited maize growth.
- Intervention effect Low light made maize leaves thinner.
- Intervention effect Low light made maize numbers of chloroplasts per unit of leaf area decreased.
- Intervention effect Low light made maize number of grana increased.
- Intervention effect Low light made maize grana thickness increased.
- Intervention effect Low light made maize the thickness of the grana lamellae increased.
- Observation YY22 chloroplasts were mostly dysplastic under shade.
- Observation YY22 stroma lamellae swelled and grana lamellae became loose.
- Observation ZD958 chloroplasts remained almost normal.
- Intervention effect Shade decreased maize net photosynthetic rate(Pn).
- Intervention effect Shade decreased maize photochemical efficiency(Fv/Fm).
- Intervention effect Shade decreased maize actual photochemical efficiency(ΦPSⅡ).
- Intervention effect Shade increased maize Chlorophyll content; the change was reversible.
- Intervention effect Shade increased maize intercellular CO2 concentration(Ci); the change was reversible.
- Intervention effect Shade increased maize non-photochemical quenching(NPQ); the change was reversible.
- Intervention effect All investigated variables differed significantly from control in shade-sensitive YY22.
- Intervention effect Shading significantly affected only Pn and Ci in shade-tolerant ZD958.
- Intervention effect Shade-tolerant ZD958 maintained a more normal anatomical structure than YY22 under low light stress.
