Table 1.

The rate constants of photoinhibition (kPI) in min−1 calculated by fitting the decline in Fv/Fm (Fig. 2) or in PSII-dependent oxygen evolution (Fig. 3), during the 45-min illumination at 22 °C or at 4 °C, to the first order reaction equation in non-cold-treated (NT) and cold-treated (CT) A. thaliana accessions

SD values (in parentheses) were calculated from at least three biological replicates. Statistically significant differences (P < 0.05) between accessions are indicated with lower-case letters and between treatment groups (between NT 22 °C and NT 4 °C, or between NT 4 °C and CT 4 °C) with upper-case letters. Significances of the differences between different accessions are shown only within the same treatment group. Significances of the differences between fluorescence and oxygen evolution data were not calculated
