To study the effects of different periods of ozone (O3) fumigation on photosynthesis in leaves of the Monarch birch (Betula maximowicziana), we undertook free air O3fumigation to Monarch birch seedlings at a concentration of 60 nmol mol−1during daytime. Plants were exposed to O3at early, late or both periods in the growing season. The light-saturated net photosynthetic rate (Asat) in July and August was reduced by O3exposure through a reduction in the maximum rate of carboxylation (Vc,max). In early September, on the other hand, despite a reduction inVc,max,Asatwas not reduced by O3due to a counteracting increase in the stomatal conductance. Through the experiment, there was no difference in sensitivity to O3between maturing and matured leaves. We analyzed the relationship betweenAsat,Vc,maxand accumulated stomatal O3flux (AFst). WhereasVc,maxdecreased with increasing AFst, the correlation betweenAsatand AFstwas weak because the response of stomatal conductance to O3was affected by season. We conclude photosynthetic response of Monarch birch to O3exposure changes with season. This is due to the inconstant stomatal response to O3but not due to the respose of biochemical assimilation capacity in chloroplasts.
