Microtensiometers Accurately Measure Stem Water Potential in Woody Perennials [PDF]

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.

Modeling Stem Water Potential by Separating the Effects of Soil Water Availability and Climatic Conditions on Water Status in Grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Measuring seasonal plant water status is critical in choosing appropriate management strategies to ensure yields and quality of agricultural products, particularly in a context of climate change. Water status of grapevines is known to be a key factor for

Establishing a Reference Baseline for Midday Stem Water Potential in Olive and Its Use for Plant-Based Irrigation Management [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Midday stem water potential (SWP) is rapidly becoming adopted as a standard tool for plant-based irrigation management in many woody perennial crops. A reference or “baseline” SWP has been used in some crops (almond, prune, grape, and walnut) to account ...

Assessing water stress in a high-density apple orchard using trunk circumference variation, sap flow index and stem water potential [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
IntroductionAutomated plant-based measurements of water stress have the potential to advance precision irrigation in orchard crops. Previous studies have shown correlations between sap flow, line variable differential transform (LVDT) dendrometers and ...

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.

Stem Water Potential is a Sensitive Indicator of Grapevine Water Status [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Botany, 2001
Abstract Dawn leaf water potential (dawnΨ), leaf water potential (leafΨ) and stem water potential (stemΨ) were measured on mature leaves to determine non-irrigated vine water status in vineyards during the growing season. StemΨ was the most discriminating indicator for both moderate and severe water deficits.

Understanding Vine Hyperspectral Signature through Different Irrigation Plans: A First Step to Monitor Vineyard Water Status

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
The main challenge encountered by Mediterranean winegrowers is water management. Indeed, with climate change, drought events are becoming more intense each year, dragging the yield down. Moreover, the quality of the vineyards is affected and the level of

Assessment of trunk microtensiometer as a novel biosensor to continuously monitor plant water status in nectarine trees

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
The objective of this work was to validate the trunk water potential (Ψtrunk), using emerged microtensiometer devices, as a potential biosensor to ascertain plant water status in field-grown nectarine trees.

Stem Water Potential and Apple Size [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 1995
The sensitivity of leaf (ψ leaf ) and stem (ψ stem ) water potential and stomatal conductance (g s ) to soil moisture availability in apple (Malus domestics Borkh.) trees ...

Primary Events Regulating Stem Growth at Low Water Potentials [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1990
Cell enlargement is inhibited by inadequate water. As a first step toward understanding the mechanism, all the physical parameters affecting enlargement were monitored to identify those that changed first, particularly in coincidence with the inhibition.
