Aquaporins and the control of the water status in coffee plants [PDF]
Six aquaporin (AQP) homologues were identified in three coffee species (Coffea arabica, C. Canephora, and C. racemosa), including four plasma membrane intrinsic proteins (PIP1;1, PIP1;2, PIP2;1, and PIP2;2) and two tonoplast intrinsic proteins (TIP1;1 and TIP1;2). In order to better understand the role of these genes in coffee, C.

Sap flow index as an indicator of plant water status [PDF]
Night and especially predawn tree water status is an important indicator of drought stress in trees. Leaf water potential (LWP) is frequently used as a measure of tree water status and hence drought stress; however, there are difficulties associated with sampling foliage from tall trees and determining LWP automatically.

Measurement of Energy Status of Water in Plants With a Thermocouple Psychrometer [PDF]
The thermocouple psychrometer developed by Richards and Ogata (1) measures the relative vapor pressure of water in air near saturation with great precision. Measurement depends on a temperature difference between wet and dry junctions of a sensitive thermocouple. Richards and Ogata (2) used the thermocouple psychrometer to measure the relative pressure

Soybean plant metabolism under water deficit and xenobiotic and antioxidant agent application. [PDF]
The aim was to evaluate the interactive eects on biochemistry and physiology of soybean plants exposed to simultaneous xenobiotic and water deficit stresses, and the possible attenuation of plant damage by an antioxidant agent.
