Interaction between carrot root dimensions and puncture force [PDF]

Journal on Processing and Energy in Agriculture, 2011
The aim of this research was to determine quantitatively carrot root mass and dimensions depending on the cultivation type (flat ground and ridge), as well as to determine the differences in the root texture by measuring the puncture force in xylem and ...

Soil Moisture Levels Affect the Anatomy and Mechanical Properties of Basil Stems (Ocimum basilicum L.)

Plants, 2021
As plants would benefit from adjusting and optimizing their architecture to changing environmental stimuli, ensuring a strong and healthy plant, it was hypothesized that different soil moisture levels would affect xylem and collenchyma development in ...

Visualisation of xylem sap flow direction in isolated fine lateral roots and estimation of the xylem sap osmotic potential

, 2012
Xylem sap outflow from fine lateral roots (FLRs) isolated from hydroponically grown young maize (Zea mays L.) plants was visualized by local brightening of test solutions contrasted with purified Indian ink particles.

Culture-Dependent and Culture-Independent Characterization of the Olive Xylem Microbiota: Effect of Sap Extraction Methods

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Microbial endophytes are well known to protect host plants against pathogens, thus representing a promising strategy for the control of xylem-colonizing pathogens. To date, the vast majority of microbial communities inhabiting the olive xylem are unknown;

Hormonal changes in relation to biomass partitioning and shoot growth impairment in salinised tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) plants. [PDF]

, 2008
Following exposure to salinity, the root/shoot ratio is increased (an important adaptive response) due to the rapid inhibition of shoot growth (which limits plant productivity) while root growth is maintained.
