Abstract: The photosynthetic characters of Hanfu apple leaves under different light conditions were studied by analyzing the gas exchange and chlorophyll fluorescence parameters.The result showed that the net photosynthetic rate(Pn),stomatal conductance(Gs),intercellular corbon dioxide concentration(Ci),maximal photochemical efficiency(Fv/Fm) and photosynthetic performance index(PI) all decreased gradually in dought condition,and reached the lowest in extreme drought,but recovered slowly after rehydration.At the end of the treatment,Pn of leaves under the full light and shading conditions was respectively 41.4% and 38.1% lower than that before the treatment.Along with the drought stress and drought relief,the density of SPⅡ reaction per excited cross section(RC/CSo),the energy absorbed per unit area(ABS/CSo) and the heat dissipation of energy(DIo/CSo) increased gradually,and started to decline after they reached the highest.The differences of leaf ABS/CSo and DIo/CSo among different lighting conditions reached a significant level after 7-days of drought stress,which was probably related to the quality of leaves.
