Används till värdering av plantors effektivitet att uppta CO2 och H2O genom plantans bladkomplex. Med porometern AP4 kan bladlövets diffusionseffektivitet och därmed dess stomatala konduktivitet bestämmas. Då AP4 är ett mycket noggrant bärbart mätinstrument, kan de registrerade resultaten omedelbart ingå i laboratorieförsök.

Simple absolute calibration in the field

Minimises leaf stress during measurement

Ideal for phenotyping based research

Stomatal aperture is the dominant factor in the diffusion conductance of leaf surfaces, which controls both the water loss from plant leaves and the uptake of CO2 for photosynthesis. Measurements of diffusion conductance are therefore important indicators of plant water status and provide a valuable insight into plant growth and plant adaptation to environmental variables.
