Xylem surfactants introduce a new element to the cohesion-tension theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Vascular plants transport water under negative pressure without constantly creating gas bubbles that would disable their hydraulic systems. Attempts to replicate this feat in artificial systems almost invariably result in bubble formation, except under ...
