Abstract
Grain sorghum cv. Quicksilver, Texas 610SR, E57 and Q7844 grown during 1976 were irrigated once only at sowing or at 7- or 28-day intervals. Leaf water potential at pre-dawn and noon, stomatal conductance at noon and daily leaf extension rate gradually diverged in response to irrigation regimes. Diurnal trends for cv. Texas 610SR were measured at 4 growth stages; multiple regression analysis showed that variation in leaf water potential could be explained in terms of radiation, temp., evapotranspiration and soil water potential
