Table 4. Leaf gas exchange, chlorophyll fluorescence parameters, and relative Rubisco amount per leaf surface of ambient air-grown Col-0, Compl-HPR1-13, Compl-T335A-23, Compl-T335D-4, and hpr1-1.

An, Rdark, the CO2 compensation point, gs, Tr, photosynthetic ETR, NPQ, qP, the Fv/Fm ratio, and relative Rubisco large subunit amount per leaf surface values (with the value of Col-0 set to 1) of 6-week-old Col-0, hpr1-1, Compl-HPR1-13, Compl-T335A-23, and Compl-T335D-4 rosettes. Values are means ± sd (n = 3 independent plants). Asterisks indicate significant differences from Col-0 as determined by Student’s t test (*P < 0.05 and **P < 0.01).
