Table 1.

Examples of variation assessed and the range of gs detected in cultivars or populations of different crops. The experimental design and methods for gs estimation are shown

Authors Crop gs range (mol m−2 s−1) Experimental material and analysis
[54] Wheat 0.15–0.55 Chromosome substitution lines grown under field conditions with and without supplementary irrigation. gs analysed with Li-Cor 6400 at saturating light
[55] Wheat 0.10–0.42 Field experiment. Double haploid population grown under supplementary irrigation and no irrigation treatment. gs estimated with CI-340 portable gas-exchange system at saturating light
[7] Spring wheat 0.34–0.57 Historical selection of wheat cultivars grown over three field seasons. gs analysed with steady state porometry on both adaxial and abaxial surface
[56] Durum wheat 0.25–0.42 Historical selection of Italian cultivars grown over two growing seasons. gs estimated with CIRAS-1 under natural light conditions
[16] Rice 0.25–0.85 64 accessions from a rice diversity research set of germplasm and 3 high-yielding cultivars grown under field conditions. gs estimated with Li-Cor 6400 at saturating light
[63] Rice 0.12–0.21 Field screening under optimal and water stress condition of a BC3F6 mapping population. gs analysed with Li-Cor 6400 at near-saturating light
[62] Soybean 0.40–0.65 Greenhouse experiments including VPD manipulation and water stress application on eleven cultivars. gs analysed with Li-Cor 6400 at saturating light
[65] Cotton 0.51–0.82 Field grown segregating population. gs analysed with steady-state porometer
[57] Cotton 0.70–0.85 Field grown historical selection of cotton. gs estimated during sunny days with Li-Cor 1600 steady state porometry
[67] Cotton 0.25–0.75 Field experiment on obverse and reverse F1 lines. gs analysed with Li-Cor 6400 diurnally and at different light intensities and temperatures.
[58] Tomato 0.80–1.20 Historical selection of tomatoes cultivars grown in the field and the greenhouse. gs was analysed in the field with a Li-cor 6400 at saturating light
