Claim · model-written summary
Conductance of both epidermes initially increased slightly, reached maxima and then decreased as leaf water potential declined.
Verbatim
e0“conductances of both epidermes responded parallel to a decrease in leaf water potential (they increased slightly, reached maxima and decreased to very low values)”

- Observation Maximum conductance of abaxial epidermis exceeded that of adaxial epidermis.
- Association Abaxial epidermis conductance increased rapidly at lower photon flux densities and gradually at higher densities.
- Association Adaxial epidermis conductance increased gradually across the photon flux density range.
- Observation The contrasting epidermal responses persisted across experimental conditions.
