Side view operation as an additional application of FluorCam-device in system for small plants. a Set-up of FluorCam-module in side view operation. b Influence of operating and adaptation time variation on the value of ΦPSII in wheat seedlings cv. “Kanzler” (9 DAS). Measurements were carried out successively at one day in periods of 9–15 min (total time 130 min). The data are the mean ± SD of 4 replicate measurements. Letters indicate statistically significant differences at the p < 0.05 level according to ANOVA and post-hoc Bonferroni test. c ΦPSII images of a wheat seedling captured at different operating times. Measurements were performed at a PAR of 450 µmol m−2 s−1
