Other claims from this paper (4)
- Observation C. canadensis had higher protective dynamic photoinhibition across the growing season.
- Observation S. pectinata had greater Φ(NPQ) during temperature minima.
- Observation S. pectinata had lower EPS during temperature minima.
- Mechanism The authors judged photoinhibitory feedback unlikely to explain the Rubisco capacity limit at high latitudes.
