Functional magnetic resonance microscopy of long- and short-distance water transport in trees

open access: yes, 2009
Due to their long life span, changing climatic conditions are of particular importance for trees. Climate changes will affect the water balance, which can become an important limiting factor for photosynthesis and growth. Long-distance water transport in

Weak tradeoff between xylem safety and xylem-specific hydraulic efficiency across the world's woody plant species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The evolution of lignified xylem allowed for the efficient transport of water under tension, but also exposed the vascular network to the risk of gas emboli and the spread of gas between xylem conduits, thus impeding sap transport to the leaves.

Determination of physical characteristics of root vegetables with puncture test [PDF]

open access: yesJournal on Processing and Energy in Agriculture, 2011
The aim of this research was to analyze the physical characteristics of root vegetables: carrot, parsley, parsnip and celery. These root vegetables are sold fresh on the market which is why it is important to specify its shape, structure and root texture.

The vascular cambium of trees and its involvement in defining xylem anatomy

open access: yes, 2017
The growth of perennial plants from tall upright trees up to small prostrate dwarf shrubs is a complex of interlinked processes resulting in a three-dimensional body whereby meristematic tissues play a crucial role. Among the various fractions

Grapevines Pretreated with Biocontrol Bacteria Have an Altered Transcriptional Response to Xylella fastidiosa and a Reduction in Pierce's Disease Severity

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions
In a previous DNA-based microbiome study of grapevines in areas of Pierce's disease (PD) pressure, we determined that taxa belonging to the Pseudomonas and Achromobacter genera negatively associated with PD severity and titer of the causal agent, Xylella

The xylem water transport network: just safe enough to keep flowing

open access: yes
In plants, water lost through leaf transpiration must be replenished by root water uptake. Regardless of plant size, the xylem vascular system ensures this balance, supporting leaf gas exchange and maintaining a positive carbon balance. Leaf water supply

Transfer of zinc from xylem to phloem in the peduncle of wheat

open access: yes, 1994
Maturing wheat grains represent major sinks for solutes in the phloem, while the xylem sap entering the ear is mainly delivered td the glumes. Nutrients and assimilates transported in the phloem may either be exported from source organs or loaded into ...
