“…Shading induces a series of physiological and biochemical changes in plant photosynthesis, which leads to reduced leaf growth rate (Li, Luan, et al, 2005; Ren et al, 2016; Schulz et al, 2018; Takayuki & Osamu, 2019; Wang et al, 2009; Yuan et al, 2012; Zhang et al, 2007), changes in carbohydrate metabolism (Chen, Chen, et al, 2020; Takayuki & Osamu, 2019; Zhang et al, 2007), and significantly reduced yield. Previous studies have measured the changes of chlorophyll fluorescence parameters under shading stress by FMS‐2 instruments, such as Fv/Fm (the PSII photochemical efficiency), ΦPSII (the PSII actual photochemical efficiency) and ETR (electron transfer efficiency), indicating that shading stress restricts the electron supply of photosynthetic carbon metabolism (Wang et al, 2017; Yuan et al, 2022; Zhang et al, 2019). As a non‐invasive spectroscopic technique, chlorophyll a fluorescence OJIP transient curve and JIP test parameters can reflect the changes of electron transfer states between the two systems (Govindje, 1995).…”
