Root Osmotic Adjustment under Osmotic Stress in Maize Seedlings 1. Transient Change of Growth and Water Relations in Roots in Response to Osmotic Stress

open access: yesPlant Production Science, 2006
The transient changes in seminal root elongation rate, osmotic potential, water potential, and turgor pressure in maize after the onset of stress treatments were examined using polyethylene glycol 6000 to evaluate the process of osmotic adjustment in ...

Spatial heterogeneity of flesh-cell osmotic potential in sweet cherry affects partitioning of absorbed water. [PDF]

open access: yesHortic Res, 2020
A fleshy fruit is commonly assumed to resemble a thin-walled pressure vessel containing a homogenous carbohydrate solution. Using sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.) as a model system, we investigate how local differences in cell water potential affect H2O ...

Predicting osmotic potential from measurements of refractive index in cherries, grapes and plums. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS One, 2018
Studies of fruit tree water relations often require data on water potentials of fruit. However, this is sometimes difficult because the fruit stalks are not sufficiently long for use in a pressure bomb.

Osmotic demyelination syndrome: a potentially avoidable disaster [PDF]

open access: yesQJM: An International Journal of Medicine, 2003
Osmotic demyelination of the brain (ODS) is a dreaded complication that typically occurs several days after aggressive therapy for chronic hyponatraemia, but is eminently avoidable. In this teaching exercise, Professor McCance, an imaginary consultant, is asked to explain how he would have treated a 28-year-old female who had hyperkalaemia ...

Osmotic Adjustment in Sorghum [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1992
Osmotic adjustment, defined as a lowering of osmotic potential (psi(pi)) due to net solute accumulation in response to water stress, has been considered to be a beneficial drought tolerance mechanism in some crop species. The objective of this experiment was to determine the relative contribution of passive versus active mechanisms involved in diurnal ...

Effects of osmotic and matric potential on radial growth and accumulation of endogenous reserves in three isolates of Pochonia chlamydosporia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
For the first time, the effects of varying osmotic and matric potential on fungal radial growth and accumulation of polyols were studied in three isolates of Pochonia chlamydosporia.

Reduced Osmotic Potential Inhibition of Photosynthesis [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1983
The effects of reduced reaction medium osmotic potential (0.67 molar sorbitol as compared to a control treatment with 0.33 molar sorbitol) on the enzymic steps of the photosynthetic carbon reduction cycle were investigated using isolated spinach (Spinacia oleracea L. var Longstanding Bloomsdale) chloroplasts.

Response of Buttonwood (Conocarpus erectus) Trees to Drought Conditions

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural and Marine Sciences, 2007
Six-month-old buttonwood (Conocarpus erectus L.) seedlings were grown in containers under different soil water potentials (Ψsoil). The objective of the work was: 1) to determine the minimum soil water potential at which Conocarpus trees can survive and ...
