(RWC), leaf dry matter content, total chlorophyll (Chl), total carotenoid content were
measured during drought treatment on Brunnera macrophylla and Stachys macrantha.
Drought treated plants showed great tolerance to levels of drought, avoiding desiccation by
decreasing stomatal conductance (B. macrophylla by 66.4%, and S. macrantha by 76, 4%).
SLA of Brunnera macrophylla significantly decreased by 14.7%, the leaf area significantly …
