Monitoring some parameters would help to overcome the difficulties that can affect in vitro-grown plants during the crucial step of their acclimatization. Thus, after the determination of net photosynthesis and other parameters during acclimatization of in vitro-grown olive plantlets, we concluded that three months after the transfer to ex vitro, the in vitro-grown olive plants become well acclimated. In fact, even though the net photosynthesis, relatively high in vitro, recorded low values after 15 d from the transfer, it reverted back to its standard rates after 180 d of acclimatization. Transpiration and stomatal conductance first increased significantly with a maximum of 6.22 mmol(H2O) m-2 s-1 and 1.8 mmol(H2O) m-2 s-1, respectively, but they regressed to very low values after 180 d of acclimatization. Some changes in the leaf anatomy were also observed; the reduction of stomata density and inversely, the increase of trichome density, especially on the abaxial side of the leaves, were observed., A.
