Changes in Foliar Water Uptake Caused by Water Stress in Cattleya Lindl. (Orchidaceae). [PDF]

Physiol Plant
ABSTRACT In response to water restrictions imposed by the epiphytic environment, orchids have developed strategies to increase water‐use efficiency, such as the expression of Crassulacean Acid Metabolism (CAM) and the foliar water uptake (FWU).
