Establishing hazelnut stem water potential baseline to improve water management [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant ScienceIntroductionIrrigation management in modern filbert (Corylus avellana L.) orchards is becoming increasingly important due to climate change, with rising temperatures and more frequent arid periods occurring across many hazelnut growing regions.

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

Microtensiometers Accurately Measure Stem Water Potential in Woody Perennials. [PDF]
Plants (Basel), 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. Recent developments of microtensiometers (MT; FloraPulse sensors), which can continuously measure water ...

Best Procedures for Leaf and Stem Water Potential Measurements in Grapevine: Cultivar and Water Status Matter. [PDF]
Plants (Basel), 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. In four grapevine cultivars and two times of the season (early season, Es; late season, Ls, under moderate drought), we assessed the maximum ...

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

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