Diversity in Drought Traits among Commercial Southeastern US Peanut Cultivars

open access: yesInternational Journal of Agronomy, 2011
Commercial peanut cultivars in the USA are often grown under soil and environmental conditions resulting in intermittent periods of water deficit. Two plant traits have been identified that result in conservative use of water and allow sustained growth ...

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

EFFECTS OF VARIATIONS IN THE ROOT-LEAF RATIO ON TRANSPIRATION RATE [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1949
When conditions are favorable for relatively rapid transpiration the rate of water loss is often determined by the rate of absorption. If soil moisture is not limiting this rate depends largely on the extent and efficiency of the absorbing surface, that is, the root system.

Integration of Spatiotemporal Multi‐Omics in Peach Fruit Unravels a Metabolic Niche and the Genetic Basis of Trichome‐Mediated Stress Adaptation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study constructed the first spatiotemporal multi‐omics map of peach fruit and discovered a key candidate gene that synergistically regulates trichome development and drought tolerance through the jasmonic acid signaling pathway, providing insights into the coupling mechanism between development and stress resistance.

Data_Sheet_1_Bark Transpiration Rates Can Reach Needle Transpiration Rates Under Dry Conditions in a Semi-arid Forest.PDF

open access: yes, 2021
Drought can cause tree mortality through hydraulic failure and carbon starvation. To prevent excess water loss, plants typically close their stomata before massive embolism formation occurs.

Measuring Transpiration Rates of Tomato and Other Detached Fruit [PDF]

open access: yesHortScience, 1993
A method was developed to measure transpiration rates and apparent water-vapor permeability coefficients (P' H2O ) of detached fruit using an analytical balance equipped with a humidity chamber, wide-range humidity-generating and sensing devices, and a datalogger.

Chitosan‐Carbon Dot Composite Materials Form a Leaf Surface Barrier to Mitigate the Enrichment and Invasion of Nanoplastics: From Leaf Interface to Systemic Response

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Foliar spraying of CS‐CDs can form a film on the leaves of Brassica rapa, effectively reducing the enrichment and absorption of PS in the leaves, while increasing the biomass and nutrient content of the plants. In addition, CS‐CDs can also enrich the interfoliar microbial community and activate the plant's own defense metabolic pathways.

Transpiration rate of AQP1xHK4 plants.

open access: yes, 2014
The rate of transpiration was monitored continuously throughout the day for each line (AQP1, HK4, AQP1xHK4 and WT). The presented data are the means ± SE for each 10th sampling point (n = 6).

Bionic Solar‐Powered Heavy Metal Trap for Eco‐Friendly Sludge Drying and Simultaneous Electricity Generation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Herein, we propose a solar‐powered heavy metal trap (SPHT) for sludge disposal. The indoor experiments demonstrated that the sludge water content decreased from 90 % to 31 %, coupled with a decrease in heavy metal content to 6 % at most. Furthermore, the designed SPHT generated an initial potential of 0.10 V, and monitoring this hydrovoltaic potential ...

Determination of the influence of herbicides on dicotyledons plant transpiration using the sap flow method

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2014
Physiological parameters are sensitive and provide information on the toxicity of herbicides in plants. The impact of herbicide application on plant transpiration was evaluated by the sap flow method during 2009-2011.
