Characteristic thermoluminescence peak emission temperatures (T M) and the overall TL emission area (A) of S2/3QB – glow peaks of control and Mn-treated (21 days) Arabidopsis plants The samples (leaf disks) were dark adapted for 30min then cooled to 2 °C and subsequently illuminated with two single turnover flashes of white light. The peak areas are presented as a percentage of the total thermoluminescence light emission in control leaves. Values are mean ± SE calculated from four independent experiments.
| Mn treatment (µM) | T M (°C) | A (%) |
|---|---|---|
| Control | 28.7±1.1 | 100.0 |
| 500 | 29.1±1.3 | 106.2±7.6 |
| 1500 | 25.8±0.9 | 54.5±7.9 |
