Figure 8

Combined effect of increasing mesophyll CO2 conductance (gm) and stomatal speed (αg) on daily water use efficiency (WUE). (A,D) daily WUE for different values of gm and αg for a cucumber leaf during the recorded sunny (A) and cloudy (D) days. (B,E) total daily transpiration rate (FO) during the recorded sunny (B) and cloudy (E) days for different values of gm and αg. (C,F) total daily net assimilation rate (Anet) during the recorded sunny (C) and cloudy (F) days for different values of gm and αg. Simulations were performed per second over 15 h (from 06:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.). Values of gm = 0.3 was increased from −40 to 500% and αg was varied in a set of 15 values and the figure present daily simulation result. Other climatic data were extracted from the 2 days measurement data presented in Figure 1 and all other parameter values are summarized in Tables 1, 2.
