Here’s another illustration for bypass diodes showing how they operate.This is for 3x 24V 60 cell panels in series with 3 bypass diodes per panel. This shows 20+30+20 = 70V. The available amps are dependent upon the available light as shown in the typical IR curves. There is actually a small voltage drop for a conducting diode of about 0.5V. So 19.5+30+19.5 = 69V available to the MPPT controller at the given amps.
