Effects of heat stress and L-Ascorbate (Asc) on OJIP fluorescence transients in tall fescue leaves. After the reagent treatments, the petiole of the leaves was immersed 1 cm deep within distilled water kept in a falcon tube with Asc (24Asc and 44Asc) or not (24Ct and 44Ct). Then the tubes were placed in a growth cabinet with the temperature of 24°C (24Ct and 24Asc) or 44°C (44Ct and 44Asc), and light intensity of 100 μmol photons m-2 s-1, and a humidity of 80% for 4 h. Then after a 25-min dark-adaption period at 24°C, the OJIP curves were induced by a red light provided by a PAM 2500. Chl a fluorescence emissions were recorded by the instrument and the most typical curves are shown here.
