The dispersal of bacteria from leaf surfaces by water splash
Advances in the techniques of genetic engineering have made possible the use of genetically manipulated micro-organisms (GMOs) for the control of pests and diseases. Before GMOs can be widely used in agriculture, however, their fate after release must be

Leaf relative water and proline content under drought stress.
A) Effect of drought stress on leaf relative water content (%). B) Leaf proline content (μg g-1 Fresh Weight of leaves) of teak plants under well-watered and water-stressed conditions (moderate and severe). Bars represent the standard deviations from the

SOME EFFECTS OF VIRUS INFECTION ON LEAF WATER CONTENTS OF NICOTIANA SPECIES
Infection with tobacco mosaic virus decreases the water content which detached tobacco leaves attain when kept for 20 hr. in conditions of minimum water stress, and does so more when the plants are kept in light before inoculation than when they are kept in darkness. No such effects of infection during the first day after inoculation were obtained with
