Isotopic Heterogeneity of Stem Water in Conifers Is Correlated to Xylem Hydraulic Traits and Supports Multiple Residence Times

open access: yesFrontiers in Water, 2022
The isotopic composition of xylem water is frequently measured to identify sources of plant water uptake and evaluate the ecosystem water budget. The most common approach to sample xylem water is cryogenic vacuum distillation (CVD).

Best Procedures for Leaf and Stem Water Potential Measurements in Grapevine: Cultivar and Water Status Matter

open access: yesPlants, 2023
The pressure chamber is the most used tool for plant water status monitoring. However, species/cultivar and seasonal effects on protocols for reliable water potential determination have not been properly tested.

Microtensiometers Accurately Measure Stem Water Potential in Woody Perennials

open access: yesPlants, 2021
Stem water potential (Ψstem) is considered to be the standard measure of plant water status. However, it is measured with the pressure chamber (PC), an equipment that can neither provide continuous information nor be automated, limiting its use.
