Chl extraction and water loss experiment.a: Chl extraction. Data were shown as percentage of total chlorophyll content 24 h after initial soaking;b: Water loss assays. Percentage of water loss was calculated as that follows: (W1-W2)/W1 (W1: Initial leaf weight before water loss; W2: Leaf weight after water loss at different time points). Error bars indicate ±SD, *P < 0.05
