چکیده

High light (HL) and enhanced ultraviolet-B (UVB) radiation are major abiotic constraints affecting plant growth worldwide. We studied the effect of HL and UVB on chloroplast ultrastructure, specific and phenomenological energy flux, and proline content in low and high-altitude Dracocephalum kotschyi plants. Plants were treated with two levels of light ...
