The impact of dark chilling followed by exposure to high light intensities on ultrastructure and selected biochemical reactions of photosynthesis in Glycine Max (L.) Merrill

Du Plessis, Karin Ronel (North-West University (South Africa), 2002)

The impact of dark chilling on ultrastructure and key reactions of photosynthesis was assessed in two soybean genotypes, 'Maple Arrow' and 'Fiskeby V'. Both these genotypes are regarded as chilling tolerant (albeit ...
Inhibition of photosystem II activities in soybean (Glycine max) genotypes differing in chilling sensitivity

Krüger, G.H.J.; De Villiers, M.F.; Strauss, A.J.; De Beer, M.; Van Heerden, P.D.R.; Strasser, R.J. (Elsevier, 2014)

Due to chilling sensitivity, minimum night temperatures represent the main constraint in soybean production in South Africa. In vivo quantification of photosystem II (PSII) function by direct chlorophyll fluorescence ...
Limitation of photosynthetic carbon metabolism in South African soybean genotypes in response to low night temperatures

Strauss, Abram Johannes (North-West University, 2008)

Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) is a key source of protein for humans and animals, but is unfortunately chilling sensitive. A single episode of low night temperature (dark chilling) is sufficient to inhibit pod formation ...
