For tomato and maize, we did not observe a significant effect of leaf excision on leaf water potential; however, for barley the water potential of excised leaves (–0.193 MPa) showed a small but significant difference with that of leaves still attached to the plant (–0.237 MPa; Fig. 1B ).

Excised leaves show limited and species-specific effects on photosynthetic parameters across crop functional types.
