Water Uptake and Water Diffusivity of Seeds [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1976 When pea (Pisum sativum) seeds were wetted, a sharp front separated the wet and dry portions, the seeds swelled, and the water content in the wetted portion continued to increase for a long time. A model was proposed and tested that takes into account these three characteristics and in particular does not postulate a constant diffusivity.

Defoliation‐induced compensatory transpiration is compromised in SUT4‐RNAi Populus
Plant Direct, 2020 The tonoplast sucrose transporter PtaSUT4 is well expressed in leaves of Populus tremula × Populus alba (INRA 717‐IB4), and its inhibition by RNA‐interference (RNAi) alters leaf sucrose homeostasis.

Bark-Water Interactions Across Ecosystem States and Fluxes
Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2021 To date, the perspective of forest ecohydrologists has heavily focused on leaf-water interactions – leaving the ecohydrological roles of bark under-studied, oversimplified, or omitted from the forest water cycle.
