Aquaporins and plant transpiration

Plant, Cell & Environment, 2016
AbstractAlthough transpiration and aquaporins have long been identified as two key components influencing plant water status, it is only recently that their relations have been investigated in detail. The present review first examines the various facets of aquaporin function in stomatal guard cells and shows that it involves transport of water but also

Rapid Changes in Transpiration in Plants

Nature, 1963
IN the recent discussion in Nature under this heading1–3, Rufelt1,3 has adopted Ivanoff's4 hypothesis that the transient increase in transpiration rate observed when a leaf is detached in air is caused “by a sudden release of the water stress in the conducting elements, which means that it is caused by an increase in the water supply to the leaf”1.

Transpiration Resistance of Plants

American Midland Naturalist, 1967
An energy budget method is described for using potom- eters to measure the minimum diffusion resistance to transpiration of excised leaves. The method is used to infer the transpiration rate of intact leaves in situ. Values of minimum resistance are given for several coniferous and deciduous trees and shrubs from wet to dry habitats. energy between the

Transpiration Rate Reduction in Plants with Atrazine

Science, 1962
When treated with atrazine, a herbicide that acts as an inhibitor of photosynthesis, both tolerant and susceptible plants showed a reduction in transpiration rate. This occurred within 1 to 3 hours of application and usually reduced transpiration by 50 percent or more after about 6 hours.

Effects of Gravity on Transpiration of Plant Leaves

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2009
To clarify effects of gravity on the water vapor exchange between plants and the ambient air, we evaluated the transpiration rate of plant leaves at 0.01, 1.0, and 2.0 g for 20 s each during parabolic airplane flights. The transpiration rates of a strawberry leaf and a replica leaf made of wet cloth were determined using a chamber method with humidity ...

A recording plant transpiration balance

Journal of Biological Education, 1983
Transpiration rates, automatically monitored, provide a basis for investigating factors that affect the movement of water through plants and are particularly useful for demonstrating the role of leaf stoma. A transpiration balance is described which permits monitoring of transpiration rates by continuously recording the weight loss from a potted plant.

Oscillations in Plant Transpiration

2007
Plants take up water via the root system and transpire water vapor through stomatal openings in the leaves. Surrounding guard and subsidiary cells control the magnitude of the openings, enabling transpiration but also CO2 transport for photosynthesis.
