Table 4. The results of Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Redundancy Analysis (RDA).

The correlations of variables with the first three principal components (PC1-PC3, RDA1-RDA3) and cannonical correlations of leaf chlorophyll content and genetic diversity with Chl a fluorescence parameters were shown. Values ca. 0.7 are marked in bold.
