Effects of alkali stress on the contents of pigment chlorophyll a (A), chlorophyll b (B), chlorophyll a+b (C) and carotenoid (D) in young and old leaves of cotton seedlings. The values are the means ± SE of five biological replicates, and each replicate consisted of a pool of five plants. Significant difference between old and young leaves under similar stress condition was determined by t-test and marked as (P < 0.05) and ∗∗(P < 0.01). The seedlings were subjected to 80 mM alkali stress (NaHCO3:Na2CO3 = 9:1; pH = 9.06) for 6 days.
