The Myracrodruon urundeuva Fr. All. specie is known like aroeira-do-sertão, it belongs to Anacardiaceae family and it can be found in the Caatinga, Cerrado and Pluvial Forest. In the present study was tested on aroeira-do-sertão the water deficit effect under greenhouse conditions in two experimental blocks: the daily irrigation and the other with water deficit. It had tested with four repetitions by treatment and in three point of stem: basal, intermediary and apical. It was registered the data about photosynthesis rate, transpiration rate, stomatal conductance, relative water content and leaf protoplasmatic tolerance. The water deficit produced increment in relative water content in the leaves at the all positions leaves through the stem and reduced the transpiration and photosynthesis rates in the plants. The apical leaves were the most sensitive to the variations of the ambient. When the aroeira-do-sertão leaves were exposured to high temperature, they presented protoplasmatic tolerance mostly in the leaves located at intermediary position in the stem whose growth is complete.
