Effect of reducing Ca by 100 µmol mol−1 on (A) quantum efficiency of PSII photochemistry (Fq′/Fm′), (B) the operating efficiency of PSII photochemistry (Fv′/Fm′), (C) photochemical fluorescence quenching (Fq′/Fv′), (D) non-photochemical fluorescence quenching (NPQ) and (E) maximum quantum efficiency of PSII photochemistry (Fv/Fm) of well-drained tomato plants. Plants were dark-adapted for at least 20 min prior to measurement of F0 and Fm to estimate NPQ and Fv/Fm. Each point represents the mean of 24 replicate measurements made on the fifth oldest leaves of eight 1-month-old plants per treatment. Vertical lines are LSDs at P = 0·05. Black boxes on the x-axis indicate dark periods.
