Abstract

Full pineapple plant canopy effectively suspended water vapour exchange by midday. This restriction of the water loss rate was accomplished despite a leaf area index of nearly 6. The control of transpiration was a direct physiological function of the pineapple leaf, which is very suitably designed for the control of gaseous exchange.
