Design calibration and field use of a stomatal diffusion porometer.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Modifications of the design and calibration procedure of a diffusion porometer permit determinations of stomatal resistance which agree well with results obtained by leaf energy balance. The energy balance and the diffusion porometer measurements indicate that the boundary layer resistances of leaves in the field are substantially less than those predicted from heat transport formulas based on wind flow and leaf size.

Two types of ventilated porometers compared on broadleaf and coniferous species.
Two ventilated porometers (diffusion and steady-state) were compared on four broadleaf and five coniferous species. The diffusion porometer gave consistently lower conductance values for both types of species, reflecting a direct stomatal response to low chamber humidity. At high conductance values, the porometers produced a linear and nearly equal response, but the diffusion porometer was less...
متن کاملGaseous-diffusion porometer for continuous measurement of diffusive resistance of leaves.
We describe a porometer that enables continuous monitoring of the stomatal diffusive resistance of leaves. The flux is measured of a gas-such as nitrous oxide-diffusing through a leaf that divides an enclosing chamber into two compartments. Nitrous oxide is added in known concentration to the airstream passing through the compartment on one side of the leaf and is recovered from the airstream p...
متن کاملThe Porometer Method for the Continuous Estimation of Dimensions of Stomates.
In studies concerning the movement of gases and vapors into and out of the leaf, it is frequently necessary that the dimensions of the stomates be determined. Such information may be more useful if it consists of a continuous record of the stomatal aperture rather than a series of periodic measurements. Two methods are generally used for the procurement of such continuous data; direct microscop...

In order to study the effect of bacterial growth on water use efficiency of alfalfa, a greenhouse experiment, as factorial based on completely randomized blocks design with three replications, was conducted at Faculty of Agriculture, University of Mohaghegh Ardabili, Ardabil, Iran, in 2012. Treatments consisted of 3 levels of water stress (75, 55 and 35% of field capacity) and seed inoculation ...
متن کاملEffect of eucalyptus growth regulators on the water loss from plant leaves.
Three closely related growth regulators (G) that are present in some myrtaceous plants were examined for possible anti-transpirant effects. The bioassay material involved cuttings of mung bean and Eucalyptus rupicola. Stomatal resistance was determined by a diffusion porometer. Water loss was equated with water uptake by the cutting over a 24-hour period.In both bioassays, G reduced water loss....
