The variability of responses within tree canopies in such open stands has been little studied. We investigated the variation of stomatal conductance within the crown of a cork-oak (Q suber L), by studying its diurnal and seasonal courses at two different heights and four directions within the canopy. Height did not strongly affect leaf response, as a consequence of the crown structure. Differences were found in microclimatic conditions and maximum stomatal conductance among directions.

Recurring cork extraction is a major stress factor and the large water loss from the stripped trunk surface may affect the water balance and tree productivity. To evaluate the effect of bark-stripping, fluorescence emission and stomatal conductance of leaves were determined in groups of barkstripped and control trees. Fv/Fm ratio was found to be significantly lower in bark-stripped trees indicating a reduced photosynthetic efficiency of PSII. Photosynthesis was not found to be stomata limited. The reduction in Fv/Fm resulted from a decline in maximum and variable fluorescence while the initial fluorescence of the darkadapted state (Fo) remained constant. A general decline in photosynthetic efficiency of PSII was found in all trees during the summer, probably reflecting the prolonged environmental stresses during a hot and dry season. Additional stress caused by the bark-stripping seems to enhance the susceptibility to photoinhibition of the trees.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Oliveira, G</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Werner, C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mertens, C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Correia, O</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">INFLUENCIA DE LA POSICION DE LA COPA SOBRE LA FENOLOGIA y LAS RELACIONES HIDRICAS DEL ALCORNOQUE (QUERCUS SUBER L.)</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Congreso Forestal Español, Lourizán - Pontevedra. 1993</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Crown position</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Phenology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus suber</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Stomatal eonductance 1)</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1993</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1993///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">277 - 282</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A tree crown may be seen as a large and heterogeneous population of branches and leaves, unequally subjected to the environmental factors.
