Regardless of shading treatment, the Ci values showed slight
increasing pattern by increasing treating period in both types
(Fig. 2eef). By 14 DOT, the Ci values in both types from 50% irradiance
treatment were higher than those of other treatments. In DP
type, however, its maximum values were observed at 20% treatment
from 21 to 35 DOT, which were significantly higher than those
measured for other treatments, and the values of 5% treatment
were always lowest (Fig. 2e). In MP type, there were non-significant
differences among Ci values measured at different treatments from
21 to 35 DOT (Fig. 2f). By 35 DOT, the highest Ci values were
observed from the plants of DP and MP-jasmine treated with 20
and 5% irradiances respectively.
