On the relationship between Photosystem II thermotolerance and irreversible heat damage in leaves of Rhizophora mangle

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Temperature‐F0 fluorescence curves of Rhizophora mangle leaves demonstrate that Tcrit, the temperature at which F0 begins to rise, is unrelated to tissue necrosis; irreversible leaf damage starts to occur at significantly higher temperatures where fluorescence emission is maximal. Abstract Global temperatures are on the rise and may, together with more
