Thermostability of photosynthesis was studied in four Mediterranean conifer species growing in southern France, namely Cedrus atlantica and Pinus nigra growing usually on mid elevation areas, and Cupressus sempervirens and Pinus halepensis from coastal areas. Chlorophyll a fluorescence was used and lead to two indices assessing the degree of thermostability of the photosynthetic apparatus: the critical temperature at ground fluorescence breakpoint (Tc) and the temperature threshold inducing a 15% decrease in photochemical efficiency (T15). The two indices were correlated and yielded similar rankings among species, although mean values of T15 were 6.5 °C lower than that of Tc. Values of Tc were in the range 44 to 52 °C and clear interspecifi...
