Response of stomatal conductance to drought in ponderosa pine: implications for carbon and ozone uptake.
To gain insight into the limitations imposed by a typical Mediterranean-climate summer drought on the uptake of carbon and ozone in the ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa Dougl. ex Laws.) ecosystem, we compared diurnal trends in leaf physiology of young trees in a watered and a control plot located in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, CA, USA (Blodgett Forest, 38 degrees 53' N, 120 degrees 37' W, 1315 ...
متن کاملLeaf Hydraulic Architecture and Stomatal Conductance: A Functional Perspective.
The structure of leaf vasculature viewed over a broad phylogenetic scale from lycophytes to eudicots correlates with stomatal conductance, providing the basis for the hypothesis that increasing vein density drove the evolution of high fluxes in angiosperms. Yet, the relationship between vascular geometry and gas fluxes breaks down at finer phylogenetic scales. In this Update, we derive a simple...
متن کاملChilling responses of maize (Zea mays L.) seedlings: root hydraulic conductance, abscisic acid, and stomatal conductance.
Maize seedling water relations and abscisic acid (ABA) levels were measured over 24 h of root chilling (5.5 degrees C). At 2.5 h into chilling, leaf ABA levels increased by 40x and stomatal conductance (g(s)) decreased to 20% compared with prechill levels. Despite a rapid g(s) response to root chilling, leaf water potential (Psi(L)) of chilled seedlings decreased to -2.2 MPa resulting in a comp...
متن کاملEffects of branch height on leaf gas exchange, branch hydraulic conductance and branch sap flux in open-grown ponderosa pine.
Recent studies have shown that stomata respond to changes in hydraulic conductance of the flow path from soil to leaf. In open-grown tall trees, branches of different heights may have different hydraulic conductances because of differences in path length and growth. We determined if leaf gas exchange, branch sap flux, leaf specific hydraulic conductance, foliar carbon isotope composition (delta...
متن کاملA modified optimal stomatal conductance model under water-stressed condition
Accurate estimation of leaf stomatal conductance (gs) is important in predicting carbon andwater cycles of terrestrial ecosystem. To estimate gs on field-grown soybean and maize underwater-stressed condition accurately, a modified optimal stomatal conductance (OSCM) modelwas established based on the relationship between marginal water cost of carbon gain and soilwater content by introducing a w...
