title: Stomatal conductance of differentially salinized plants.
abstract: Stomatal resistance was measured daily with a stomatal diffusion porometer during a 4-week period in leaves of bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L., var. Bush Blue Lake) and barley (Hordeum vulgare L., var. Liberty) plants having roots equally split between two differentially salinized nutrient solutions. The stomatal conductance (reciprocal of stomatal resistance) of plants with half their roots in saline solutions was intermediate between the stomatal conductances of plants grown in nonsaline solutions and those grown in saline solutions.
