Five leaflets were measured for the average values ±standard error (SE).
As shown in Figure 3, the increases in the chlorophyll concentrations in the
mutant leaflets were observed depending on the increase in the number, the
first leaflets, the second leaflets, and the third leaflets. The increase in the
relative concentrations of chlorophyll in the mutant leaflets may be the result
of not only enhanced synthesis of chlorophyll, but also the enhanced
protection of chlorophyll degradation against the exposure to singlet oxygen
under strong sunlight.
Figure 2b. The same sample as presented in Figure 2a was exposed for 6 h.
