To provide references for poplar cultivation in waterlogged prone area of Jianghan Plain of China, the waterlogging tolerance of 15 poplar clones widely cultivated in these areas were evaluated based on their responses to 45-day waterlogging stress followed by 15-day drainage recovery in morphology, growth, biomass accumulation, leaf gas exchange and chlorophyll fluorescence parameters. The results showed that the normal watered seedlings (CK) of the 15 clones grew vigorously during the experiment, and no defoliation and death occurred. For the seedlings under waterlogging treatment (water 10 cm above the soil surface), its morphology changed markedly, including slowing growth, chlorosis and abscission of leaves, development of hypertrophied lenticels and adventitious roots etc. Waterlogging stress significantly inhibited the seedling growth of height and ground diameter, biomass accumulation, as well as leaf gas exchange and chlorophyll fluorescence parameters of the 15 clones with varying degrees. The net photosynthetic rate (Pn), stomatal conductance (Gs), transpiration rate (Tr), intercellular CO2 concentration/ environmental CO2 concentration (Ci/Ca), variable fluorescence (Fv), variable fluorescence/ initial fluorescence (Fv/Fo) and PS Ⅱ primary light energy conversion efficiency (Fv/Fm) decreased gradually with the prolonged waterlogging, and reached their bottom on day 45. During the terminal recovery stage, the leaf gas exchange and chlorophyll fluorescence parameters of the most clones increased, but their recovery abilities were significantly different. At the end of the experiment, the highest survival rates (100%) were observed in DHY, HS-1, HS-2, I-72, I-69, I-63 and NL-895, and the lowest (zero) occurred in XYY. Survival rates of the other clones ranged from 33.33% to 83.33%. Both results of cluster analysis and membership function analysis showed that HS-1, I-69, DHY, NL-895 and HS-2 had the strongest waterlogging tolerance, XYY and HBY were the worst, and the other clones were moderate. These results would provide guidance not only for the selection of cultivated varieties in Jianghan Plain, but also for the selection of hybrid parents for waterlogging resistance breeding.

This study was conducted to interpret the differences in frost tolerance and winter survival between 8x, 10x, 12x, 14x, and 16x ploidy levels of garden pansy (Viola &times; wittrockiana Gams) genotypes grown in the field conditions. Plants of each genotype were analyzed for their ploidy levels using flow cytometry. The chlorophyll fluorescence parameters were measured with portable chlorophyll fluorometer in the greenhouse and in the field at different time intervals. Increased frost stress generally reduced the fluorescence values in all genotypes. However, the genotypes differed significantly in their responses to frost as they were exposed to minimum temperatures of 1&deg;C to &ndash;7.7&deg;C in the field. Based on the percentage reduction in F<sub>V</sub>/F<sub>M</sub> values against &ndash;7.7&deg;C temperature the hexadecaploids were ranked as sensitive to intermediate followed by 12x (sensitive), and genotypes with 10x and 14x ploidy levels were tolerant as the controls. The winter survival rate of hexadecaploids was by 7 to 9% lower than in the controls followed by the genotype with 12x and both genotypes with 10x and 14x ploidy levels were about equal to the controls. On the other hand, the content of photosynthetic pigments (chlorophyll a, b and total carotenoids) was the highest in hexadecaploids and tended to increase with increasing ploidy level. Further, the results gave insight that chlorophyll fluorescence could be applied directly in the field conditions to screen genotypes and select plants having higher frost tolerance in combination with improved aesthetic qualities. &nbsp;
