Diurnal changes in net photosynthetic rate (PN), chlorophyll (Chl) fluorescence, and stomatal aperture of several hybrid poplar clones subjected to midday light stress were measured in July and August of 1996. Midday depression of PN, photosystem 2 (PS2) efficiency, stomatal conductance (gs), and stomatal aperture was observed in all clones, though at differing rates among them. Non-uniform stomatal closure occurred at noon and at other times, requiring a modification of intercellular CO2 concentration (C1). A linear relationship was found between gs and stomatal aperture. More than half of the photons absorbed by PS2 centre dissipated thermally when subjected to light stress at noon. There was a linear relationship between the rate of PS2 photochemical electron transport (PxPFD) and PN. There was a consensus for two fluorescence indicators (1 - qP/qN and (Fm' - F)/Fm') in assessment of susceptibility of photoinhibition in the clones. According to PN, Chl fluorescence, and stomatal aperture, we conclude that midday depression of photosynthesis can be attributed to both stomatal and non-stomatal limitations.
