Effects of drought stress on photosynthesis and photosynthetic electron transport chain in young apple tree leaves

Zhibo Wang; Guofang Li; Hanqing Sun; et al. Biology Open 2018. doi:10.1242/bio.035279

Other claims from this paper (17)

Mechanism Above -1.5MPa, stomatal limitation was proposed as the main cause of decreased photosynthesis.
Association PN, Gs, E and Ci correlated positively with leaf water potential in the less severe stress period.
Association Fv/Fm, ΦPSII, qP and qL declined as leaf water potential fell.
Observation NPQ and Y(NPQ) rose in the less severe stress period.
Observation Below -1.5MPa, Ci increased.
Association Ci had a V-shaped modeled relation with ψw.
Mechanism Non-stomatal limitation was proposed to explain photosynthesis decline under severe stress.
Intervention effect Water-stressed apple leaves had lower Fv/Fm, ΦPSII, qP and qL than controls.
Observation NPQ and Y(NPQ) declined under more severe stress.
Mechanism Excess energy increased ROS production including H2O2 and O2•-.
Intervention effect CAT, SOD and POD activities increased in drought-stressed apple leaves.
Intervention effect APX activity decreased in drought-stressed apple leaves.
Observation The antioxidant response was insufficient to remove ROS.
Mechanism ROS accumulation was proposed to reduce D1 protein content.
Observation Electron transport capacity from QA to QB decreased.
Mechanism Declining photosynthesis and electron transport were proposed to reduce ATP supply and RuBP regeneration.
Mechanism The proposed non-stomatal factors contributed to lower CO2 assimilation under severe water stress.

Other claims from this paper (3)

Intervention effect Using a bag increased the drag force on apple models compared with no bag.
Intervention effect Using a bag increased the shear force acting on apple models compared with no bag.
Intervention effect The direction of the bag keeps the shear stress on the stem below the allowable shear stress of a real tree.

Other claims from this paper (7)

Intervention effect Cocoa with plantain reduced seedling girth in year two.
Intervention effect Treatments did not significantly affect cocoa height.
Observation The four crop intercrop had the lowest soil N, P and K, without significance.
Intervention effect Intercropped cocoa yielded 28-60% more beans than sole cocoa, except cocoa with cassava.
Observation Intercropping was profitable.
Association Plantain and maize combinations produced higher net benefits.
Recommendation The authors recommend intercropping during establishment.
