Acclimation of Photosynthesis to Low Leaf Water Potentials [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1984 Photosynthesis is reduced at low leaf water potentials (Psi(l)) but repeated water deficits can decrease this reduction, resulting in photosynthetic acclimation. The contribution of the stomata and the chloroplasts to this acclimation is unknown. We evaluated stomatal and chloroplast contributions when soil-grown sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) plants

Hydraulic trade-off and coordination strategies mediated by leaf functional traits of desert shrubs
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Desert shrubs play important roles in desertification control and vegetation restoration, which are particularly affected by droughts caused by climate change. However, the hydraulic strategies associated with hydraulic functional traits of desert shrubs

Hydrogen sulfide, potassium phosphite and zinc sulfate as alleviators of drought stress in sunflower plants [PDF]
Ciência e Agrotecnologia, 2020 Drought is the most harmful environmental factor crop productivity. Some chemicals are used in agriculture to mitigate the damage from this stress on plants. Therefore, we examined whether the spraying of zinc sulfate (ZS), potassium phosphite (KPhi) and

Leaf water potential and leaf extension in a sudax crop [PDF]
New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, 1977 Abstract Leaf water potentials were measured on leaves at three canopy heights in dryland and irrigated sudax plots. Leaf water potentials of basal tillers ranged from -2 to -5 bars and those of upper leaves on the main stem fell to -13 bars during the daytime. Mid-canopy leaf water potential ranged from -4 to -7 bars.

Comparisons of Leaf Water Potential and Xylem Water Potential in tomato Plants [PDF]
Australian Journal of Biological Sciences, 1970 The rapidity and convenience of the pressure chamber technique for estimating leaf water potentials, especially under field conditions, has been remarked (Boyer 1967; Kaufmann 1968a, 1968b) and demonstrated (Klepper and Ceccato 1969). However, Kaufmann (1968a) showed that it is necessary to exercise caution .in using measurements made with the pressure

Fruit and Leaf Sensing for Continuous Detection of Nectarine Water Status [PDF]
, 2019 Continuous assessment of plant water status indicators might provide the most precise information for irrigation management and automation, as plants represent an interface between soil and atmosphere.

Physiological drought responses improve predictions of live fuel moisture dynamics in a Mediterranean forest. [PDF]
, 2018 The moisture content of live fuels is an important determinant of forest flammability. Current approaches for modelling live fuel moisture content typically focus on the use of drought indices.
