Abstract
Stomatal aperture quickly increased with light intensity to a maximum and then decreased until the stomata closed. Transpiration was optimal at a weak light intensity and then the curve fell quite sharply, increasing again rectilinearly at higher intensities, the latter increase being due to cuticular transpiration. Analysis of the curved part representing stomatal transpiration suggested that the relative humidity within the leaf was
