Abstract
Under increasing water saturation deficit of leaves of young bailey plants, the proportion of the cuticular transpiration may be higher than 10%, as usually anticipated. In this case the calculation of the intercellular CO2 concentration on the basis of the premise, usually employed, that the resistance of stomata equals that of the leaf, is affected by a considerably high error.Keywords
