Abstract: Effects of low temperature stress on photosynthetic characteristics in leaves of eggplant(Solanum melongena L.)seedlings of 702 were studied.The results showed that chlorophyll contents,chlorophyll a/b,net photosynthetic rate(Pn),stomatalconductance(Gs),transpiration rate(Tr),light saturation point(LSP),photosynthetic rate at light saturation point,apparent quantum yield(AQY),CO2saturation point(CSP),carboxylation efficiency(CE)and maximum RuBP regeneration rate were decreased;Light compensation point(LCP),CO2compensation point(CCP)were increased,and intercellular CO2concentration(Ci)were decreased in the former period,and then increased.The results suggested photochemical structure of eggplant seedlings was damaged under low temperature stress.

Key words: Low temperature stress, Eggplant seedlings, Photosynthetic characteristics
