Diurnal Change in Water Balance of Heat-Tolerant Snap Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) Cultivar and Its Association with Growth under High Temperature

A snap bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) cultivar Haibushi shows high productivity under high-temperature conditions. Together with intensive radiation, high temperature enhances transpiration and causes water deficit in plants even when they are irrigated enough. To characterize daily change in water ba...
