文摘There was heterogeneous distribution in stomatal conductance (g-s) and stomatal aperture for both high- and low-light leaves of Ligustrum sinense Lour. in four designated positions within a leaf. Linear or exponential or polynomial relationships between g-s and stomatal aperture were found when regression of g-s and stomatal aperture was established. Statistical analysis revealed that the relationship between g-s and stomatal aperture for high-light leaves was more significant than that of low-light leaves. A linear relationship between g-s and stomatal aperture existed in both positions 1 and 3 for both high- and low-light leaves. The stomatal density of the low-light leaves was much lower than that of the high-light leaves. The sensitivity of stomata to changing environment for high-light leaves was higher than that for low-light leaves, which may also relate to the higher stomatal density for the high-light leaves.
