Since 1986, non-uniform photosynthesis over the leaf area that may be attributed to patchy stomatal closure, has been an important issue in stress physiology of photosynthesis. In this review, I first outline the gaseous environment within the intercellular spaces, because this is the most fundamental background of this problem. Then, recent studies approaching non-uniform photosynthesis are reviwed. After examining techniques for the detection of non-uniform photosynthesis or non-uniform stomatal aperture, results of the relevant studies are discussed for respective stress factors, seeking causes and consequences of non-uniform photosynthesis. From these, mechanisms responsible for, and consequences of non-uniform photosynthesis, are considered. The problems which should be challenged are also pointed out.
自 1986 年以来，由于斑驳的气孔关闭，叶片面积上的非均匀光合作用已成为光合作用胁迫生理学中的一个重要问题。在这篇综述中，我首先概述了细胞间隙内的气体环境，因为这是这个问题最基本的背景。然后，回顾了最近关于非均匀光合作用的研究。在检查了检测非均匀光合作用或非均匀气孔开度的技术之后，针对各自的胁迫因素讨论了相关研究的结果，探讨了非均匀光合作用的原因和后果。由此，考虑了非均匀光合作用的原因和后果的机制。还指出了应该解决的问题。
