Effect of mechanical wounding of the local leaf on the maximal photochemical efficiency of photosystem II (Fv/Fm) and net photosynthetic rate (Pn), and the relative electrolyte conductivity (REC) and content of malondialdehyde (MDA) in the systemic leaf of wheat. The local (fourth) leaf was wounded 3 h prior to exposed to the freezing stress for 24 h. Fv/Fm and Pn of the systemic (fifth) leaf were determined as area of interest after freezing stress (A). The systemic leaves were harvested after freezing stress for measurements of REC and MDA content (B). Data are means ± SD of three different replicates. Means denoted by the same letter did not significantly differ at P < 0.05 for each analysis according to Tukey’s test.
