| Zusammenfassung: | © 2023 The Authors. New Phytologist © 2023 New Phytologist Foundation. We present a robust estimation of the CO2 concentration at the surface of photosynthetic mesophyll cells (cw ), applicable under reasonable assumptions of assimilation distribution within the leaf. We used Capsicum annuum, Helianthus annuus and Gossypium hirsutumas model plants for our experiments. We introduce calculations to estimate cw using independent adaxial and abaxial gas exchange measurements, and accounting for the mesophyll airspace resistances. The cw was lower than adaxial and abaxial estimated intercellular CO2 concentrations (ci ). Differences between cw and the ci of each surface were usually larger than 10 μmol mol-1 . Differences between adaxial and abaxial ci ranged from a few μmol mol-1 to almost 50 μmol mol-1 , where the largest differences were found at high air saturation deficits (ASD). Differences between adaxial and abaxial ci and the ci estimated by mixing both fluxes ranged from -30 to +20 μmol mol-1 , where the largest differences were found under high ASD or high ambient CO2 concentrations. Accounting for cw improves the information that can be extracted from gas exchange experiments, allowing a more detailed description of the CO2 and water vapor gradients within the leaf |
