From nine different plant species grown at 1500 cm3 m-3 CO2 five responded with a significant increase in stomatal numbers per mm2 as compared with plants grown under normal air conditions. Within a collection of twelve french bean cultivars remarkable cultivar differences with regard to the CO2 enhancement effect on stomatal numbers was found.
