Influence of waterlogging stress and benzyladenine application on tomato grafted to eggplant

open access: yesAnnals of Tropical Research, 2007
Under waterlogged conditions, the non-grafted tomato plants has significantly lower survival rate (53%) compared to the grafted plants (100% survival rate).

Abscisic acid agonists suitable for optimizing plant water use

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Climate change and overexploitation of groundwater resources cause constraints on water demand for agriculture, thus threatening crop productivity. For future food security, there is an urgent need for crops of high water use efficiency combined with ...

Transpiration in plants: A thermodynamic imperative

open access: yes, 2010
In this article we determine the importance of transpiration in plants at three different levels of organization: the plant itself, the ecosystem, and the biosphere, all in terms of entropy production due to transpiration.

Simulated Global Climate Response to Tropospheric Ozone‐Induced Changes in Plant Transpiration

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2018
Tropospheric ozone (O3) pollution is known to damage vegetation, reducing photosynthesis and stomatal conductance, resulting in modified plant transpiration to the atmosphere.

Evaluation of Sap Flow Sensors to Measure the Transpiration Rate of Plants during Canopy Wetting and Drying [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Accurate measurement of transpiration is required to estimate the various components of evaporation losses during sprinkler irrigation. Among the methods, sap flow measurements have widely used for direct measurements of transpiration rate in plant.

Mounding technique improves physiological performance and yield of oil palm on Spodosols

open access: yesSains Tanah: Journal of Soil Science and Agroclimatology, 2022
Spodosols have been widely used for oil palm plantations, specifically in Kalimantan, Indonesia. However, they are sub-optimal for agriculture due to a lack of water and nutrient-holding capacity and a spodic layer that limits plant root development ...

Foliar Accumulation of Melatonin Applied to the Roots of Maize (Zea mays) Seedlings

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2019
Plants absorb melatonin from the environments as well as they synthesize the regulatory molecule. We applied melatonin to the roots of maize (Zea mays) seedlings and examined its accumulation in the leaves.

Modeling of transpiration reduction in van Genuchten-Mualem type soils

open access: yes, 2009
We derive an analytic expression for the matric flux potential (M) for van Genuchten-Mualem (VGM) type soils which can also be written in terms of a converging infinite series.

Climate Change Threatens Micronutrient Density of European Winter Wheat

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Micronutrients are vital for human health. Wheat is a major staple crop and a significant source of minerals and B‐vitamins. The impact of climate change on their content remains largely unknown. We evaluated micronutrient levels in European winter wheat grown under historical and projected climate conditions. Our findings indicate that future climates

Phenology and canopy conductance limit the accuracy of 20 evapotranspiration models in predicting transpiration

open access: yes, 2022
Transpiration is a fundamental biophysical process, directly measured in plants by dividing sap flow by total leaf area. Under non-limiting conditions, transpiration and reference evapotranspiration (ETo) are hypothesized to be equal when ETo is ...
