Replication Data for: Time of the day of difference between leaf and air temperature (dT) and maximun stomatal conductance (gs_max) define the most appropriate reflects water status for potatoes

In the present study a potted trial, with the aim to relate maximum stomatal conductance (gs_max, an important water status indicator) with difference between leaf and air temperature (dT). Were compared gs_max and dT along the day in well-irrigated (field capacity) and water restricted (half field capacity) plants. An acute stomatal closure sensitivity was detected which drove a gs_max near the solar noon. The intense stomatal closure caused a dT rise which showed positive higher values (> 2 °C) after gs_max.
