The results showed: The average P max,AQY,LSP and LCP of the seedlings from the two provinces were 12.65 μmolCO2.m -2 s -1,0.052 7 μmolCO2.μmol -1 photons,1 120.99 μmol.m -2 s -1 and 18.03 μmol.m -2 s -1 respectively. There were significant differences between the two provenances in the all photosynthetic parameters except for AQY. The provenance of Suichuan performed better than that from Jian’ou with higher P max,AQY and LSP of 30.48%,4.66% and 25.70% respectively,though the LCP of Suichuan provenance was higher and needed stronger illumination. There was more variation in P max,AQY,LSP and LCP between the two provenances than that within the two provenances. There were significant differences between the upper and lower crown layers with higher P max and AQY in the upper crown,while there was no difference in LCP and LSP between the two crown layers due to the integrated influence of the shape of seedling crowns and the photosensitivity of leaves.展开更多
