dc.description.abstractThe stomatal response of cocoa {Theobroma cacao Linn.) leaves to ambient humidity, light and temperature was studied under low and high soil-moisture regimes. The stomatal diffusion resistance increased with decrease in relative humidity, which was magnified by soil-moisture stress. However, the effects of light and temperature were not so pronounced as that of humidity. Stomatal regulation by internal (stress) and external factors (humidity) led to a decrease in transpiration rate, which was a major strategy for water conservation in cocoa plants.en_US
