Abstract
Trials were carried out on "Stark Redgold" nectarine trees to evaluate the effect of available irradiance, canopy side and training system on stomatal density and size, and on the stomatal area per cm2 leaf area.
Stomata were less numerous with lower available irradiance, on the East side of the canopy and in Free Palmette trees.
Since stomatal size increased as their number decreased, the proportion of leaf area occupied by stomata did not show significant differences for each combination of the variables considered.
